Pretty sure you want a bag that's BPA free. Other than that, I'm not sure. I thought i read you're really not supposed to use zip lock bags. Food saver bags are BPA free and safe for cooking (like even boiling) and a relatively low cost compared to other vacuum sealers. If you really don't want to spend the money on the machine, you can get food saver zip bags and the little handheld unit for under $20 but they don't always seal that great. Most have done fine cooking but when I vacuum them and store in fridge or freezer, i usually come back to them with air back in them. But really everyone should have a food saver. It makes storing extra portions of bulk proteins so easy. Plus you can get a Mason jar attachment to seal those too.
But did that roast not have the blood sponge packet in it? That's what I always wonder about with cooking straight from those things. I guess it wouldn't with the marinade in there now that I think about it.
