I'm planning on doing a few racks of apares today, as well as a ham. The ham requires 3 hours of smoke, and roughly the same for the ribs. I want then to be finished at the same time, so I figured that I'd  put the spares on for the 2-2-1. Smoke for the first 2 hours, then add the ham, foil the ribs for 2, and then smoke unfoiled for the last hour. The question is, will the foil keep the ribs from getting oversmoked?

I would start an hour earlier if I were you and then start the ribs for a 3-2-1 smoke. Spares take alittle longer the 2-2-1 is mainly for baby backs not spares.
 
What Mark said, and to answer your question. The ribs will not absorb any smoke if tightly wrapped in foil.
 
Err...sorry guys...babybacks...I blame getting up early. Anyway, here are some pics
