Cutting a Brikset in half?

[Jason B]

I've got about a 14llb whole brisket I want to cut in half or so...

I'd like to smoke half of it and cook the other half using the Emeril recipe in the beef section of the forums.

Any way in particular I should plan on cutting it?

I have never cut one in half. People routinely separate the point from the flat. No problems there. If the recipes both call for a flat you might want to cut that section in half and cook the 1/2 flat with the point at the same time. Save the other 1/2 for the Emeril experiment.
