Brisket smokers

[bakin7005]

Who wraps brisket in foil during entire smoke? I typically wrap mine after smoking first five hours with fat cap up. Everyone loves my brisket but I'm wondering if it would make it more moist if I wrapped it the entire 10-12 hours.

Wrap it with pink paper, it doesn't keep cooking it like foil does.

What would be the point of smoking it if it's wrapped in foil the entire time? Might as well cook it in the oven then aint it?

I'm by no means a pro at cooking brisket, but I wrap mine towards the end for an hour or so and then let it rest in foil for another hour or more. If I have a pan I will use that instead of just foil.

I do them the same way you do currently. I would think it would be hard to get a nice bark and good smoke ring on it if you wrapped it the whole time, but could very well be wrong

I wrap after about 2 hours of smoke. I've found that is plenty of smoke flavor.

It's all about the bark for me. Wrapping it is called the "Texas crutch". Not saying I haven't done it, or say it is bad.

I do 5hrs smoke, then wrap, fat side down.

No, you're not wrong.

I wrap in pink butcher paper after 8 hrs.

This has worked best for me, but I am by no means a professional.

I would think that if you wrapped it the whole time, it wouldn't get any smoke and would wind up being basically a roast. It may wind up juicy and tender, but not taste like BBQ.

That is true, I wrap mine after I take it off the smoker.
