Brisket and Pulled Pork cooked together

Question!!

I have been tasked for cooking the meat for this weekend for our party at the lake this weekend. Here is the problem everyone wants pulled pork and a brisket as well. Can I cook them together? I have a AR so space is no problem. Should I put the pork on top and brisket on bottom? I am looking at cooking these around 275, will this work?

    Of course you can, silly boy. That's how I'd probably do it, set up wise and temp.

    I have the same thing coming up. I think I can do them side by side. Xl for the win:)

    I think I'd rather have the brisket on top.
    Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.

  • You might switch them after the stall so your brisket develops a good bark. Your pork is going to rain down a half gallon of water on your brisket during the cook and that keeps the bark soft

    Where was my invite to the lake? Fine, if you need me, I'll be at the ranch. :D

    That seems to be my dilemma, do I want all that pork juice dripping all over the brisket or vice versa. Will that affect the taste.
