I tried the foil boat method for the first time last week on a choice brisket from Albertson’s ($1.97/ lb). Cooked on Weber Summit Charcoal at 230-275 F. Foil boated after 4.5 hours and temp was 170ish. Temp in Weber climbed ans high as 320 after tinfoil boated. My 9 lb (after trimming) brisket was out of the smoker after 6 1/2 hours with a temp of 201 to 210 depending on where I probed. Was worried the thin flat was overcooked. It went directly into a 150-170 F oven to hold for 5-6 hours still in the foil boat.
It was awesome. Flat was perfect. Even the thinnest part. Bark was great.
What am I going to do with all the butcher paper I bought?
I highly recommend the foil boat based on my one try.
