pretrimmed

Cut before purchase

Pretrimmed describes something that has been trimmed in advance, typically before sale or use.

The term appears most often with food products—pretrimmed meat, pretrimmed vegetables—where excess fat, stems, or inedible portions have already been removed: The pretrimmed beef roast saved prep time.

It also applies to materials cut to size before installation: pretrimmed wallpaper, pretrimmed lumber.
