How long to smoke ribs?

[sarge1947]

I did a search and came up with way too many answers but not the one I wanted. So here it is. 

I am assumng that the 3-2-1 method of smoking spare ribs only uses smoke for the "3" section!?

I bought a AMNPS today, and will be smoking this week maybe monday. I am quite certain that I only need to fill one trough with pellets to get the result I want. That result would be a significant smokey flavor but not overpowering. YES/NO?

I give them smoke the whole time, unless they are in foil.

Depends on what wood pellets you are using. 1 row not even fully loaded will be more then enough to get it done

I don't have a torch or lighting gel so getting it going may be a trial.
