A couple weeks ago, my wife found some super meaty bundles of pork rib tips. Each package had 3 tips in it and they were only .99/lb so it was a steal. Got them all rubbed up at about 8:00 this morning. Gunna let them hang in the fridge til about 3 o'clock. I've never done tips before, but I'm guessing 2-1-1 at 325-350 should sufficient right? I'll take them off whatever time they are done at, just looking for a ballpark on time. I'm also going to try the squeeze butter brown sugar foil sauce.

Yea no need to wrap those tips, simply cook them until tender probing with a tooth pic or temp probe.  That 275 area has been the sweet spot for me and i like some direct heat on it to give a good texture.   
 
I always do that. I'm a pastry chef so my all temps are in the 300s. I meant 225-250.

Also, I'm foiling just to test out the foiling sauce before I use it on a more expensive rack of St. Louis style

We really like foiling ribs with sugar and butter, catch all the liquid when you unwrap, and baste them with it for the last hour and they get sticky and sweet. 
 
Oh, they are. Took em off after 3.5 hours. Incredibly tender. They are still wrapped up, but I had a sample. Had to run to costco. Will eat em when we get back. They will probably fall apart after the long rest.
