Appreciation post: The foil boat method completely saved my pork butt

I had a 9 pound butt that just would not push past 180 degrees, even after 14 hours on my offset. I wrapped it in a single sheet of foil, crimped like a boat, and it hit 203 in under an hour while the bark stayed solid. Has anyone else tried this instead of a full wrap?

Just a sheet? You need two for a proper boat.

Two sheets for a paper boat is overkill.
