    In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3
    Whisk BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, and beef broth in a separate bowl.

    Place the brisket in the slow cooker, fat side up. Pour the sauce mixture around the sides of the brisket.

    Cover and cook on LOW for 8-10 hours (or HIGH for 5-6), until brisket is fork-tender.
  6. 6
    Gently transfer brisket to a cutting board and rest 10-15 minutes. Slice against the grain, drizzle with extra sauce, and serve hot.
