I think I would try the cherry. But I'm sure the maple would be good as well.
I was thnkin 2 cherry and 1 maple per hour?
That will work John. Light 'em up!
Here they are after the first 3 hours at 220-225! I used Bad Byrons Butt Rub. I forgot to take before pics :o

Here we are after 2 hours covered at 200deg for 2 hours. Basted with BBQ sauce and now back in for the last hour. How long should I let them rest.

Here they are done! 3 hours. Pucked stacked 2 cherries, 1 maple..... 2 hours wrapped with some apple juice, 1 hour basted with Bulls Eye Original mixed with some red pepper flakes. I subscribe to Cokks Illustrated and Bulls Eye won their taste test for best bottled sauce so I thougt I would try it. Keep in mind they only sample about 10-12 different sauces, some national some regional.
1.) Had a great smokey smell!
2.) Looked great
3.) Nice light smoke taste with a little bit of sweeetness, little bit of heat from the red pepper flakes.
4.) Pulled right off the bone as you bit into them, very tender, melted in your mouth.
5.) Wife said they were well cooked savory ribs ::) She said sometimes smoked meat have that overwelming smoke flavor and these did not ::)

Great looking ribs. Glad the wife was pleased! Lift goes better that way!
