KCBS Rules interpretation needed

[Q-Dat]

I have one of these on the way to me now.

Its a little pricey, but I am sick of weak Foodsavers. Also this uses 15" wide bags which should easily accomidate large butts and briskets. I just bought 5 Prime grade briskets that are going to get trimmed for comps, vac sealed, and frozen so that they will be ready for competitions.

From the KCBS Meat Inspections Guide

4. The meats do not have to be in the original packaging and may be trimmed prior to meat inspection, but no meat may be seasoned, injected or cooked, prior to the inspection.

I actually roll my briskets starting wtih the point and ending with the flat. I've had to double bag a couple because I couldn't get them to zip up. I should really invest in a vac-sealer so I can trim and then seal it again.
