Smoking {PORK LOIN BACK RIBS} on a brinkman vertical propane with water pan

Questions:
hickory or mix of hickory and apple wood chunks ?
what temperature and how long ? i was thinking around 250 degrees untill meat is flexible (passes bend test). probably about 5 hours
I usually prefer not to use foil , but if i must then i must. opinions?
when to apply sauce, or no sauce untill ready to eat ?


thanks to all that reply

both would be fine...

250 will work... bend test is a great guide.

you don't need to use foil.

when to apply sauce, or no sauce untill ready to eat ?

if you want to sauce, apply during the last 30 minutes or so...
