US firm recalls meat products produced under insanitary conditions

Yauk’s Specialty Meats, a Windsor, Colorado, establishment, is expanding its recall to include an additional product that was produced under insanitary conditions, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced. The products being recalled are in addition to the various meat and poultry products that were recalled on Dec. 9 and Dec. 12, 2013.

The products subject to today’s expansion of the recall can be identified by the establishment number “Est. 20309” inside the USDA Mark of Inspection and include:

•    “Old Style Sausage” brand Smoked Andouille Sausage.

Products previously included in the recall expansion on Dec. 12, 3013 can be identified by the following brand names and bear the establishment number “Est. 20309” or “P-20309” inside the USDA Mark of Inspection. Products that do not bear the establishment number “Est. 20309” or “P-20309” inside the USDA Mark of Inspection would not be included in this recall.

Brands affected by the Dec.12 recall expansion include:



•    Four Sisters Farm

The following products are subject to the recall announced on Dec. 9:

•    “Colorado’s Best Beef” brand various fresh, smoked and shelf-stable meat products.

•    “James Ranch” brand jerky and summer sausage.

•    “Rocky Plains Meats” brand hams, bacon, raw and smoked sausage, jerky and raw poultry.

•    “Long Family Farms” brand smoked pork products (product description has been corrected in this expansion).

•    “Horned Beef” brand jerky.

•    “Mile High Hungarian Sausage” brand fresh and smoked bacon and sausage.



All products being recalled are packaged in retail-ready packaging of various sizes. Each package bears the establishment number “Est. 20309” or “P-20309” inside the USDA Mark of Inspection. The products were produced between April 1, 2013, and Dec. 5, 2013 and can be identified by four-digit Julian dates ranging between 3091 and 3339. The products were sold at the wholesale and retail level in Colorado, Nebraska, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming.



FSIS began a food safety assessment at the plant on Dec. 5, 2013, and discovered that product was being produced under insanitary conditions, including rodent activity in the production, storage and retail areas of the property. FSIS has suspended the assignment of inspectors at the establishment, and the establishment currently is not operating. It was discovered during the ongoing investigation that additional products should be removed from commerce.



FSIS and the establishment have received no reports of illness due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a healthcare provider.
