I am going to smoke a prime packer brisket but I want to try two different rubs. I want to try just salt and pepper for the first rub and the second rub is oakridge black ops rub. Can I use two different rubs on the same brisket? If I put one rub on half of the brisket and the other rub on the other half will there be a problem or contamination of the two rubs?

I've done that before. What I do is lay a piece of paper or foil or something along a perpendicular line across the grain and add rub 1, then move it and add rub 2. Then place a toothpick right at the joint of the two as a visual indicator for later when the whole thing is black, going parallel to the rub line (perpendicular to the grain). Then when I slice against the grain I cut right at that mark, then each half has the different rub.

I believe part of your problems, especially from the first photo, is you didn't carve it properly. I you don't cut against the grain it will be tough. Second pic looks like the fat and collagen are breaking down so you were going good there. Small smoke ring though, I'm guessing more cook time for sure.

No rules in BBQ or the bedroom! Go for it, if you want to be super OCD about it, use a little mustard sauce to coat the first half, apply your rub to help adhesion. Then repeat for the second half, to minimise boundary overlap! Man that sounds scientific.
