The FSIS announced the recall of approximately 1,835 pounds of fresh ground beef products by Dean & Peeler Meatworks due to potential E. Coli O157:H7 contamination. These products were shipped to restaurant locations in the greater San Antonio, Texas, area. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
The recalled products are:
- 1-lb., 5-lb., and 10-lb. vacuum-sealed plastic bags containing "Peeler Farms WAGYU BEEF GROUND BEEF" with lot code 17836 represented on the label.
- 5-lb. vacuum-sealed plastic bags containing "R-C RANCH TEXAS CRAFT MEATS WAGYU RC13610 STEAKHOUSE BLEND - GROUND BEEF 5 lb" with lot code 17816 represented on the label.
- 8-oz. vacuum-sealed plastic bags containing "R-C RANCH TEXAS CRAFT MEATS WAGYU RC13603 - GROUND BEEF PATTIES 8 oz" with lot code 17816 represented on the label.
These products were produced on August 22, 2023 and bear the establishment number "EST. 51283" inside the USDA mark of inspection.
The problem came to light via a third-party laboratory. The beef tested presumptive positive for E. Coli O157:H7.
FSIS is concerned that some product may be in restaurant refrigerators or freezers. Restaurants are urged not to serve these products.
In case you are experiencing E. coli symptoms such as watery diarrhea (often bloody), vomiting; stomach cramps; and mild fever, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
