Discovered wrapping brisket in butcher paper vs foil last weekend

I've been doing foil wraps for years but tried peach butcher paper on a 14lb packer. Bark came out way crunchier and the smoke ring was deeper than I've ever gotten. Anyone else notice a big difference between the two materials?

Paper for sure... way better bark and that smoke ring gets deeper every time.

I feel you on that, paper's the only way I go now too, it just works.
