I do 2 on the XL in 8 hours... 4 open in the smoke and 4 wrapped.

Doug, what is the bark on yours like when you foil wrap for the last 4 hours?

I have never wrapped. I like a good crust on mine.

It develops well in the first 4 hours, so very similar, but probably not as thick as if not wrapped...very tasty, but a good crust if you don't drown it in sauce like I do sometimes.  We like that too.  IMO the wrapping helps reach the desired temp faster and holds more moisture in.
