Butcher paper wrapped brisket - Page 2

Some folks have been known to wrap in a plain ole paper bag. FWIW, that brisket looks delicious from here.

In the old days, many experienced housewives would place their thanksgiving day turkey in a paper bag as well.

A smoke ring is in no way associated with the rub.

Not entirely true. It will depend on what is in the rub.

Sounds like you had both, so you've got me scratching my head as to why you didn't get a smoke ring on your brisket. I wonder if it's because those cookers (kamado/keg cookers) are so efficient that they aren't using enough hardwood fuel to create a good smoke ring?...

I whole-heartedly concur. NEVER had a problem getting a smoke ring on an offset, UDS, or wsm. NEVER...no matter the rub or how much.
