Love beef ribs.  I do hot sauce rub, salt and pepper, no wrap, smoke until they probe like buttah (usually >200).

Brisket on a stick- ride til you get the feel as mentioned by @J-dubya.  The cook can run longer than you likely will think it should.

What temp?  I have these in the freezer. Might as well find out now how I am going to cook them!  Approximately how long?

From my research, I was going with 250 to 275 for 4 to 5 hours

six hours is not unreasonable, depends on how fatty they are but. I think they usually improve with a longer cook.

I have the 2 inch pieces most common in the grocery stores.  I have read to expect additional time and like posted above go by feel versus time.

I'm sure they will come out great.  Speak to the butcher at the store to see if they will sell you uncut ribs for your next attempt.  I think the uncut ones come out even better.  Post some pictures.
