I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I'm going to ask anyway.
My wife is afraid to let a brisket cook overnight. I have one in my refrigerator right now that I'd love to cook.
So, if I cut it in half near the flat/point, and cook both halves in my WSM, would that (theoretically) halve the cooking time?
In other words, let's say the brisket weighs 12 pounds. Rough calculation is that would be a 15-18 hour cook.
But if I cut it in half, and put half on the bottom rack and half on the top, can I cut that time down to 7.5 to 9 hours?
I'm assuming the answer is probably "no, you can't do that you dummy", but I thought I would ask.
See? I told you it was a really dumb question. :icon_smile_tongue::crazy::-D
