competition prep of chicken question...

[temptedfate]

I am aware that trimming of meats are allowed prior to comps as long as meats are not preseasoned, injected or separated as in the case of a pork butt. But, I was wondering about the removing of chicken skin, scraping and reattaching? Would this be considered a no no or is it accectable

Sure, you can do that in advance.

Not only acceptable, but if you do nothing else meat prepwise, I would get that done before getting on site.
