We used to roll the edge of the bag over to try to keep it clean, but it always seemed to distort the end of the bag. And half the time it still got some juice or meat on it anyway. I don't know how we came up with this method, but it works for everything as long as it will fit on a paper plate. Here's how we do it.
First spray some Pam on the plate so the meat slides off easily.
Then put whatever your going to seal on the plate.
Then roll up the sides & slide the plate into the bag.
Slide it all the way to the bottom.
Then pull the paper plate out, letting the meat slide off and stay in the bottom of the bag.
As you can see the edge of the bag is still nice & clean & ready to seal.
This will work with liquids too, like Au Jus, or stock. Just freeze it in a container first, then while frozen use the paper plate method to transfer it to a vacuum bag.
Hope this is helpful to all of you!
