I was just thinking my brisket is 14lbs and I do not think it will fit on 1 rack. Should I cut it in half?? Will it dry out if I do that?? The brisket has a pretty good layer of fat on one side that I was going to leave on to help with the moisture. Also I will cook with the fat end up of course??

Thanks for the help
