Default Freezing baby backs?

After smoking them I mean.

I have 3 racks in the freezer now, in their original packaging (individual
cryovac), bought "pretty much frozen" over the summer and put right in the
deep freeze. My family only needs about a rack and a little for a meal if
we're not having company, so I was considering putting all 3 racks on the
WSM with a rub, no sauce mop, and then putting the excess (a rack and a half
or so) into vacum seal bags (probably a half rack in each) and freezing the
finished product for a quick meal sometime soon. I've done both tubs and
vacum bags of pulled pork with fine results, so I assume it should be OK.

Any thoughts on this? Will freezing this "previously frozen" meat be a
problem? Should I add a little sauce for moisture retention?

Thanks,

- Bo
