The 4 Frendz Meat Market, located in Clarkson, WA, issued a recall on Saturday for approximately 497 pounds of beef jerky products due to under-processing and potential survival of bacterial pathogens in the products. The announcement was made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) on behalf of the company. The suspect jerky was produced from Aug. 10, 2015 to April 11, 2016. Products are subject to recall include:
• 3-oz. VACUUM-PACKED packages containing “SOUTHFORK SAUSAGE MESQUITE PEPPER JERKY.” • 3-oz. VACUUM-PACKED packages containing “SOUTHFORK SAUSAGE HONEY JERKY.” • 3-oz. VACUUM-PACKED packages containing “SOUTHFORK SAUSAGE MESQUITE JERKY.” • 3-oz. VACUUM-PACKED packages containing “SOUTHFORK SAUSAGE TERIYAKI JERKY.” • 3-oz. VACUUM-PACKED packages containing “SOUTHFORK SAUSAGE HOT HONEY JERKY.” The recalled products bear establishment number “EST. M22017” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These jerky was shipped to retail locations in Idaho and Washington. The under processing problem was discovered during a comprehensive FSIS Food Safety Assessment (FSA) inspection performed in the establishment by an FSIS Enforcement Investigations and Analysis Officer. While the under processing may have extended back eight months, FSIS says it has no confirmed reports of any illnesses from anyone eating the jerky. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers. When available, the retail distribution list(s) will be posted on the FSIS website.
