I’m going to try the cooler holding method for the first time. I’m going to line the bottom with towels. Do you guys rewrap the brisket in paper or foil? Or do you just reuse the old butcher paper? then put towels on top and shut the cooler
Thanks
 
Use clean so it don’t soil the towels thats the good thing about foil unless you poked holes in it
 
Got point about new with the holes from probing for temp. You recommend foil over paper for the holding stage?

I normally just let it cool a bit, then use the oven, but the oven is in use so I will use the cooler
