Was wondering if at a comp. if you have cryovacked meat but the sell by date is past. Can the rep or inspector D.Q. your meat .I have a frig just for comps and catering buy most well before hand.
 
It would depend on the sanctioning body and/or the organizer.

KCBS meat inspection guidelines to not include date checking.
 
since I buy my meat by the case, they dont have a sale by date. I would have to carry the box flap that has the kill date on it and go from there.
 
We have only competed in 7 KCBS contests but have never even had the inspectors look at the label on a package of meat.Most have looked to see that the meat had nothing more then trimming done if they were not in cryo packs.We had 2 inspectors check temp with non contact therms otherwise they have just looked to see that they were in ice.
