The one trick that fixed my brisket bark problem

For YEARS I could never get a good bark on my brisket. I was wrapping in foil at around 160 degrees like everybody says. Then last summer I switched to butcher paper after reading about it on a BBQ forum. Now I wait until the stall hits 170 before wrapping and the bark comes out PERFECT every time. Has anyone else had better luck letting it ride longer before wrapping?

Did you try spritzing it while it's cooking too? I started using apple juice and it made a mess of my smoker but the bark got real dark and crunchy.

Is it really that big of a deal though?
