Brisket question

[Carpenter Gary]

Hi everyone I am smoking a brisket on my pellet smoker, have 2probes in,my question is the point is at190 .& the flat is 175also it is wrapped in butchers paper,smoker is at 250. Should I seperase the point from the flat if it is done before the flat,then put the flat back on?Thank T for any help and have a Happy Easter

Interesting. I personally do not think it would hurt to separate the flat then add back later. Never done it though.

Now they are within 5degrees of each other almost ready to take them off, getting tender quickly

Judging by your finished product you did good. Full packers aren't readily available around here, but on the rare occasion that I can get my hands on one I separate them when point is finished. They should separate very easily.

Point for sure
