The notion of strictly outward minimising hull is investigated for open sets of finite perimeter sitting inside a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under natural geometric assumptions on the ambient manifold, the strictly outward minimising hull $\Omega^*$ of a set $\Omega$ is characterised as a maximal volume solution of the least area problem with obstacle, where the obstacle is the set itself. In the case where $\Omega$ has $\mathscr{C}^{1, \alpha}$-boundary, the area of $\partial \Omega^*$ is recovered as the limit of the $p$-capacities of $\Omega$, as $p \to 1^+$. Finally, building on the existence of strictly outward minimising exhaustions, a sharp isoperimetric inequality is deduced on complete noncompact manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature, provided $3 \leq n \leq 7$.
