Tried wrapping my brisket in butcher paper instead of foil last weekend
Got a 14 lb packer from Costco and decided to switch it up after watching a Franklin BBQ video. Wrapped it at 165 and let it ride to 203 in my offset smoker. The bark came out way crunchier than I expected, almost like a shell. Anyone else find that paper gives a harder bark than foil?

Paper definitely makes a harder bark than foil in my experience. Last time I did one the bark was so crunchy it sounded like breaking glass when I sliced into it.

Bark that sounds like breaking glass? That's a texture issue more than a paper vs foil thing. Could be your rub or cooking temp.
