I've got 3 beautiful briskets in the freezer. The problem is that they are all 10-12 lbs and too long for the smoker.

Should I cut one of them into the point and flat cuts and use two racks?

If so, should I put the flat cut in several hours after the point?

Thanks, Rich

Just saw the other thread!!! Thanks everyone!

Also, if they are not too much over size for you racks, some have bent their briskets in a U shape. As they cook they will shrink.

Check out this method.

I should have said inverted "U". That is the way Pachanga does his.
