In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the Heinz® Tomato Ketchup Blended with Sriracha Flavor and cranberry sauce until smooth. Remove 1 cup of the sauce and set it aside.
Remove the ribs from the package and pat dry, and set them meaty side up on a cutting board. Cut the ribs into 3 to 4 rib sections. Sprinkle the dry spice mixture onto the meaty side of the ribs and press to adhere to the meat.
Pour the water into the bottom of the slow cooker.
Spread the sauce generously onto both sides of the ribs. Set the ribs into the slow cooker. Cook on high heat for 3½ hours.
Remove the ribs to a baking sheet (meaty side up). Preheat your oven broiler. Brush the remaining 1 cup of sauce onto the meaty side of the ribs. Broil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling. Serve immediately.
Notes
Sriracha ketchup is made by Heinz (found in the condiment aisle) and Huy Fong Foods (Asian products).
