Is it viable to separate brisket like this?

[Panupat]

I think I do need to separate my brisket because my smoker is a cabinet smoker. Only way I can expose the point to more heat is by placing them on lower rack closer to fire source.

However I really, really like the slice where you have both flat and point together so I'm curious if this is viable as oppose to separating the 2 completely on their own like every instructions telling me to?

I always separate that way. Who doesn't like a little flat with their point?

I seperate the flat and point along the far seam between them, to maximize both pieces.
