Sounds like Hickory might be the ticket.  Can't go wrong with Hickory

supposed to be a bit mild, i'm kind of hoping for a sweeter flavor, and also hoping the mesquite kicks it up a notch.

Glad they turned out, any wood in the Bradley doing ribs is good. It just what you like. I have used everything from apple to mesquite to do ribs and I have never been disappointed.

I have been using either maple or apple because I had the 120 packs of them, and they both come out good, about out of both so I think I will buy some hickory and apple for my next go around.

I just did a rack of BB's friday with Maple and they were good.  Had to finish in the oven because I lost another heater element but they were still tasty.

I like to use Hickory or Pecan but have used Apple and Maple before with great results. I do like to use mesquite but in small doses due to it has a very strong taste :)

I have become a Pecan fan, but since I have 10 boxes of Crown Royal

I may have to switch for a while.

Guess I'll put my two cents in.  ;D. Ive used apple, pecan, and the messy wood (mesquite). All have come out great.

I dig the apple. Cherry is a bit to over powering. It really all depends on personal taste.

Hickory and apple seem to be the two I use for most everything. When I started, I bought one box of everything and I soon had a bunch of remnants... one or two of this and that, so the last time I had a long smoke, I just grabbed all the leftovers and loaded up the SG. Great pulled pork, but I have no idea what wood combination I used. Smoked meat is just good....period ;D
