Looking at several posts, I notice some separate the point and flat before they smoke it, and others wait until it's cooked. Is this primarily a preference thing, or is there a definite reason for either/or? Seems easier 'before' as far as visibility, but as I haven't smoked a brisket yet, this is just a guess. I guess I'm looking for the pros cons of either way. Thanks.
