I have a 16#pounder I will be smoking in the am, question is should i separate the point and flat or just trim it so it will fit?

Can't go wrong with brisket advice from Pachanga.  I had an 18lb one last fall.....followed his info in the links and it turned out great!

Bending it seems to work we will know more soon. Sorry at 4am forgot to take pics.

Bending does work. Just try to keep it from touching the sides it will shrink nicely in the rack.

I will post pics when it is done, if you're peaking you're not cooking.

I think it goes, "If you're lookin' you're not cookin'."  Looking forward to the pics.

This must be one of those stubborn 48-hour briskets.   ;D

It got done around 9pm, with 3 teenagers in the house saying they are starving I forgot to take pics.:-[
