Butcher BBQ Pink Butcher Paper 24" wide x 150' long is the go-to wrap for pitmasters who care about bark, moisture, and clean results. Trusted by competition teams and serious backyard cooks, this paper helps you push through long cooks without turning your brisket into pot roast. It breathes just enough to protect your meat while keeping the bark set and the texture right.
Unlike foil, which traps steam and can soften bark, pink butcher paper supports a better balance of airflow and moisture retention. Use it for brisket, ribs, pork shoulder, or even post-cook resting and holding when you want meat that slices clean and serves like it should.

What is pink butcher paper used for?
It’s commonly used to wrap brisket and other large cuts during smoking to help retain moisture while still allowing airflow so bark can form and stay intact.
How is it different from foil?
Foil traps steam, which can soften bark and change texture. Pink butcher paper breathes, helping preserve bark while still protecting the meat during the cook.
Is this butcher paper food-safe?
Yes. This is food-grade butcher paper designed for BBQ and general food handling.
Can I use this for other meats or foods?
Absolutely. Use it for ribs, pork butts, chicken, resting and holding after the cook, or even wrapping sandwiches, trays, and leftovers.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
