Roll - Vapor Retarder Issue

Which side should the vapor retarder face when I'm insulating the wall between the breezeway and garage? Since the entire garage will get roll insulation and a wood burning stove, this space will be just as warm as inside the home.

The vapor barrier should be facing you when you are inside the garage since it will be heated. Considering it is a garage and the type of heating system you will have in there, I strongly recommend having sheet rock over the insulation.
