Anytime I have to hold food more than 2-3 days it gets frozen. It's easy to re-heat in the food saver bags in boiling water or put the meat in a covered pan in the oven or smoker and re-heat at low temp. One nice part about freezing in the bags is you only have to thaw what you need and not all of the meat.

Ah, the law hasn't caught up to technology. Go figure. The reason the FS bags work so well is that they are vacuumed sealed, thus inhibiting bacteria growth.
If they is a doubt, go the freezer route

I like to freeze PP in foodsaver bags. Before I seal the bag I put in a ice cube or two of frozen apple juice.
When you boil the bag the juice melts and makes the meat tasty.
