You prefer wrapping ribs with foil instead of butcher paper?

I used to do foil, but once discovered butcher paper, felt that was a way to keep some moisture retained with still allowing the meat to “breathe” enough to not lose the bark.

But you do this a shite ton, and your stuff always looks delicious. So I’m curious your thoughts.

I feel like if you go long enough and set the bark well then the foil on ribs won’t really effect in that much. They were only wrapped on the smoker for 30-45 minutes. I also think if you wrap tight it doesn’t really steam and lose the bark. I think a lot of people that wrap in foil also go the butter, brown sugar, and all other sorts of stuff that will soften the bark as well.

Admittedly I’ve never tried wrapping ribs in butcher paper, if your glaze in the foil seems like it wouldn’t really work well in butcher paper.
