I have a 13 lbs. brisket and was wondering about the advantages/disadvantages of seperating the point from the flat prior to cooking. Plan would be to cook the point on the top grate and flat on the lower grate. Assuming 1.5 hours/lbs. and an 8 lbs. flat/5 lbs. point does that reduce my cook time from around 20 hours to about 13 hours?
Assuming I seperate prior to cooking what is the best way to make the cut? I assume it is more of a diagonal cut rather that perpendicular or horizontal.
Thanks
