I always cut chops out of the ribs. But if I were to do them, I'd do em hot and fast. Oak or pecan for wood, cherry if that's all you can get. 2 hrs at 275 ish and foil for about an hr till just barely tender, un foil and firm up. Just salt and pepper for a rub, no sauce or serve it on the side. Some horseradish sauce something conmes to mind here.
