Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Rancho Feeding Corporation is recalling approximately 41,683 pounds of various meat products, including beef carcasses, oxtail, hearts, liver, and tongue, because they were produced without full federal inspection. These items were produced on January 8, 2014, and shipped to distribution centers and retail establishments in California. Products can be identified by the establishment number 'EST. 527' inside the USDA mark of inspection and the case code 'ON9O4'.

Risk

The meat is considered unfit for human food because it was produced without the required full ante-mortem inspection by federal authorities. While no illnesses have been reported, consuming meat that bypasses safety inspections poses a risk of exposure to unknown foodborne pathogens or diseased animal tissues.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your freezer and refrigerator for any meat products bearing the establishment number 'EST. 527' inside the USDA mark of inspection.
  2. Verify if the packaging contains the case code number 'ON9O4', which is located on the boxes of the recalled beef products.
  3. Immediately stop using and do not consume any of the affected meat products as they have been declared unfit for human food.
  4. Contact the plant's Quality Control manager, Scott Parks, at (707) 762-6651 for specific instructions on what to do with the product or to address questions about the recall.
  5. If you have additional food safety questions, contact the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854.
