Smoke Finishing "ahead of schedule"

OK, so I have a dumb question...
If my meat reaches temp way before meal time, I should just wrap it and throw it into a cooler with a good seal to keep it warm and stuff said cooler with blankets or towels? I am assuming I wrap it in foil? I won a Yeti cooler in a meat raffle, how long should I expect this to keep the meat warm?
Thanks everyone.

Correct. Wrap it up tight in foil and then towels and throw it in your cooler. I’ve held pork butts for easily 3-4 hours in the past when I’ve had a fast cook.

I double wrap in heavy duty foil then a heavy beach towel and then into a cooler just large enough to hold the meat. Not too large or small.

At Thanksgiving I smoked a 15 LB Turkey. I wrapped it like David described and put it in a Coleman cooler. Before putting the bird in the cooler I placed a pot of boiling water in it to preheat for about 30 minutes. I held the turkey for about 4.5 hours and it was still nice and hot at serving time. Your Yeti should have no problem keeping the heat in.

If a smoke finishes early for me, I turn the temp on smoker down to 140, wrap product in foil and leave it the in smoker until time to serve.
