I tried it, but didn't care for the mess. I don't know what you are cooking on but be careful the bag can catch fire. Especially like on a UDS. If you like the way it cooks try using red butcher paper ( not white ) it will hold up better than paper bags. I usually foil my briskets at 160* internal and add liquid to the foil and I can't do that with the paper. I have heard others say they like the way it cooks, if it works for you, do it. There are many ways to get to the same end result, you just have to find what way you are comfortable doing.

Here is what I was cookin' on......... no worries about burning the bag....
.... a cooked a couple of briskets on sunday and both turned out great, as usual, the one in the sack was like 8lb and I smoked it for about 6 hours before I put in the bag, then smoked it about 3 more in the bag, then another hour without the bag........ it turned out awesome.....
..... the other one was like 13 lbs and was awesome too but had a little less moisture than the bag brisket... I just smoked it with no bag and no foil.... I never foil.....
