Been running a snake with cherry wood, holding a solid 280f for 3.5 hours now. I wasn't planning on wrapping but I feel like the bark is forming up fast.

Maybe a boat to keep the bottom and sides from burning

What’s the internal temp?

Scratch test. If bark is set, wrap for about an hour. Then finish unwrapped to crisp it up a little. Use instant read thermometer to get the correct temp

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I sprinkled some brown sugar on them in lieu of sauce and will pull them in about 30 minutes, that’ll be the 5 hour mark. No wrap

I never wrap it unless I’m grilling

I usually don’t wrap but I also cook low and slow at 225. 280 is a bit high in my opinion so I wouldn’t cook them for 5 hours at 280 or they’ll be over done

I’m a recent no-wrap convert as well, always seems to turn out better

Turn them to the opposite side of the burning coals to keep them off of direct heat. You’ll be fine.

I tried both. I prefer not to wrap
