Is there an advantage to wrapping the brisket in tin foil toward the end of cooking on the egg. Can you point me to some references if you think this is a worthwhile technique

The only reason I can think of is when you crank up the heat to finish sooner. I drape foil over the meat to keep it from burning the bark.Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.

Will it ruin the bark if you wrap it

Yes, but it'll help power through the stall. Search the forum for evaporative cooling and you'll get more detailBig B said:Will it ruin the bark if you wrap it

Thanks read all the posts so is evaporative cooling a good thing and therefore should you prevent it by foiling. Thus making the flat of the brisket moretender
