Butcher paper vs. Postal paper

[Sam Meyer]

Hi everyone, is there really any difference between the two, or can I use postal brown paper from the dollar store and it works the same for Brisket? Its much cheaper of course than the pink butcher paper. Thanks.

Don't think the post paper has any coating on it / gets wet and dissolves.

Here's a thread http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?66815-Butcher-paper&highlight=butcher+paper for sourcing paper.

Not sure if postal paper would be food grade....
