Default Babyback Cook Times

I have always cooked St. Louis Style ribs, but wanted to try some baby backs. How much time difference is there in cook times between the two? Normally cook my St. Louis at 250 for 4 hours.

Thanks for the input!

Since loin backs are leaner than spares, they cook up quicker, just like any other lean meat. I like to do them a bit faster, and will power through at around 300-325 for 3 hours. No peeking, foiling, spritzing. They'll pass the bend test, and won't get rubbery, or dry. Just moist juicy goodness.
