What's this?

Generally use butcher paper to help maintain the bark, if you use foil


it has a tendency to steam the meat. People refer to using foil as the Texas crutch, because it helps to tenderize a tough brisket that someone may not have had the patience to cook low and slow.

(Having said all of that, no matter how skilled you are as a smoker, it's difficult to make good brisket out of a bad cut of meat.)
