Sprinkle the short ribs with the salt, pepper and flour. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the short ribs in batches and sear until golden brown on all sides. Place the short ribs in the slow cooker and repeat with remaining ribs.
In a bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili garlic paste and garlic cloves. Pour mixture over the ribs. Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 8 to 12 hours.
Remove the ribs from the slow cooker (keep the juices!) and place them on a plate to cool so you can handle them comfortably. Once slightly cooler, pull the beef off the bone and remove and bits of fat if desired. Place all the shredded beef back into the slow cooker and into the juices. Set the crockpot back on low or warm and toss well. The ribs are ready to eat at this point, but I like to let them soak up the juice for about 30 minutes.
