I'm planning to do my first cook of a whole brisket, 11.5 lbs, so figuring about 18 hours.
Here's my question: I should have room to cook something else along with the brisket. Would it make sense to put some ribs in their with it or chicken or turkey (no pork, please)? Maybe during the second half of the cook? Could I put the brisket on the lower grate and add something on top in say the 12th hour? Or is it a bad idea to mix meats that way?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
