I wrap after it reaches the IT I want.  Then into a cooler till grub time.

I recently converted to wrapping it.  I am wondering if anyone has tried the “foil boat” method on a pork butt?

Are you using a foil boat for the wood because it catches fire?

I always wrap pork between 160-170 based on the color. Like the Sarge, I place my pork in a cooler for up to 6 hours and think that is the key to the most moist pork.

 I like the foil boat for brisket so that I have a better crust.
