I wouldn't smoke ribs at a higher temp simply not worth the mistake as I have always had great results at 220 to 230. I never let drippings drop to the coals I either line the drip bowl or buy foil pans to catch. I dont worry about wood chunks after the first 2 hours as the meat I have been told has taken by then all the smoke they can and to much smoke can be detrimental with off tastes. Now that may or may not be true its just what I have been told over 35 years of smoking and works for me. I say if you smoke like your results and tastes good to you then your doing it right. I dont insist anyone follow anything I post in smoking I just post what I have done. I think some folks think if you dont do it as they say your doing it wrong.
Yep.

I'm a 220-230 foil catch pan guy through and through.

Agree 100% with the last part. A million ways to smoke a cow. Or pig.
