Kosher for Passover
Kosher, but with specific guidelines.
Explanation: Meat can be kosher for Passover if it adheres to the regular kosher laws (from a kosher animal, slaughtered according to Jewish law, and free of certain forbidden fats and sinews) and is also free from chametz (leavened products). This means that any meat processed with chametz ingredients or equipment is not permissible during Passover. Additionally, some communities have the custom to use only meat that has been specially supervised for Passover to ensure no cross-contamination with chametz.
