I actually follow the same regimen for the pieces I've trimmed as the rest of the ribs, 3-2-1.

The first thing is I don't trim my spare ribs I like them whole. But I have trimmed in the past and I would smoke them right along with the ribs and it should take maybe 3 hours for your tips to get done and ready to eat for the cook. It's an appetizer for the cook team or chef.

I normally smoke BB's but the past few times my brother has come to my place he has brought spares. We trimmed them and smoked the tips the same way as ribs foiling and all and they were great.
