Got a 13 lb brisket that I knew would not fit on the medium.
I am going to 'Travis' it.
I need to cut into at least two pieces, should I ?
1. separate the flat from the point.
2. cut in half to the side of the point.
The two halves will fit in the foil pan.
Will it be OK to do the two pieces together?
I may save half of the flat for corned beef/pastrami.
All ideas are appreciated. Thanks.

Since the point and flat are so different.... Don't know why you couldn't cut it. My last cook I had to separate the two due to temp differences. Have you tried draping it over a rib rack?Green egg, dead animal and alcohol. The "Boro".. TN

Thanks Hen,
it will not fit using a rib rack, vertical interference.
Now thinking of folding and tied. Or separate and halve the flat.

You should probably just get a large egg, you know you want to._________________________________________________Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story!Large BGE 2006, Mini Max 2014, 36" Blackstone, Anova Sous Vide

I've cut from the end of the brisket (on the side with the flat) and used for ground beef.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.____________________Aurora, Ontario, Canada
