The USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service is recalling 258,000 pounds of cooked beef products (canned meat). The meat was apparently imported from a Brazilian company that was delisted in May, 2010 after repeated violations and is not eligible for US imports.

The following products are subject to recall:

  • 12-ounce cans of "Libby Corned Beef" bearing a production code "100315U," "100316U," "100322U," or "100326U." These products were sent to distribution centers in Florida, and Pennsylvania for retail sales.
  • 7-ounce pouches of "Brushy Creek Shredded Beef" bearing a production code "100121," "100128," "100129," "100308,"or "100322." These products were sent to distribution centers in Missouri, New Jersey, and Ohio, for retail sales.
  • 10-ounce pouches of "Brushy Creek Roast Beef" bearing a production code "100226," "100309," or "100311." These products were sent to distribution centers in California, Missouri, New Jersey, and Texas for retail sales.
  • 12-ounce cans of "Kroger Corned Beef" bearing a production code "100226U" These products were sent to distribution centers in Indiana for retail sales.

Each product package bears "BRASIL 337 S.I.F," as well as "Product of Brazil" or "Packed under Brazilian Government Inspection."

Just one more reason to buy

Just one more reason to buy from local farmers. I usually buy meat from the MARKET at the corner of High and Washington in Maryville.
