Skipping the crutch on a brisket flat... Still wrap and rest at the end?

[Butterman]

I've never not wrapped my brisket before but wanted to give it a try and see how it comes out.

Still in the stall. Only gone up about 12 degrees in the last 4 hours.

So bottom line I'm thinking I would still wrap for the rest but wanted to see what others thought.

Also should I add any liquid to the foil for the rest?

Appreciate any input you all have.

Been in for 7.5 hours so far and is up to 165 degrees.

I would wrap for the rest, but not add liquid just to get a control. If you think you should add liquid next you have a good reason to another one soon.
