Trim the buffalo ribs, removing any excess fat. Rub them with olive oil to help the spices adhere.
In a bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Thoroughly rub the spice mixture all over the ribs.
Place the ribs in a smoker preheated to 225°F (110°C). Use apple or hickory wood for smoking. Smoke the ribs for 4-5 hours, turning occasionally.
In a small saucepan, combine the barbecue sauce and apple cider vinegar. During the last hour of smoking, brush the ribs with this mixture to create a flavorful glaze.
When the internal temperature of the ribs reaches 203°F (95°C) and the meat easily pulls away from the bone, remove them from the smoker.
Let the ribs rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve hot with extra barbecue sauce and a fresh salad.
