I think if you split the "rounds" that you will like them better and they will dry out quicker. I would split them after cutting them into length. By the way, Jealous of your find! When I lived in Texas It was a hard decision whether to use pecan or mesquite when smoking my Briskets. My personal favorite was mesquite, but if I was feeding others at the trough, I would use pecan.

Blessings,

Omar
