I guess this question would apply whether you are using a toothpick to test ribs, or a fork (or probe) to test brisket or butt.
Is it better to poke through the foil, leaving a small hole(s) where steam/moisture could escape, or to unwrap the meat which would allow a good deal to excape? Obviously, rewrapping would prevent further loss.
