In Franklin Barbecue: A Meat-Smoking Manifesto, Aaron explains that butcher paper should be used to wrap a brisket (or something else). If you don't have any, use foil.
Well, I don't have any but I can possibly find some. I've been reading the wiki pages and some say that Butcher paper = Kraft paper. My local paper store says they have Kraft-wrap paper. However, on the smoke forums, they say, hold on champ! Your paper ain't food grade...
So, perhaps I need help understanding the difference between food grade paper and non-food grade paper. I understand that if the paper has dyes in it, it may not be food grade. Unbleached paper "should" be food grade?
What about Parchment paper? Wouldn't it be the same equivalent than butcher paper as I can get that by the ton!
