Gallo Meats Recalls Beef, Lamb, and Sausage Products for Inspection Issues

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Gallo Meats LLC. is recalling approximately 82 pounds of various beef, lamb, and sausage products that were produced and distributed without federal inspection. The recall includes Hot Italian Sausage, Ground Lamb, and Beef Flank Steak sold in vacuum-sealed (cryovac) packages. While a USDA mark of inspection was applied to these products, they were not actually inspected during production, and the sausage may also contain undeclared soy, wheat, fish, and milk due to cross-contamination.

Risk

Consuming products produced without proper inspection may pose a health risk as they have not been verified for safety. Additionally, the sausage products contain undeclared allergens (soy, wheat, fish, and milk) which can cause severe or life-threatening reactions in people with allergies or sensitivities.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your packages for Gallo Meats products with establishment number EST. 09334 inside the USDA mark of inspection.
  2. Identify affected Hot Italian Sausage (12-16 oz.) with a pack date of 04.20.16.
  3. Identify affected Ground Lamb (12-16 oz.) with a pack date of 06.07.16 or 09.16.16.
  4. Identify affected Beef Flank Steak (12-16 oz.) with pack dates of 07.22.16, 07.27.16, or 09.16.16.
  5. Return the product to the place of purchase for a refund, throw it away, or contact Gallo Meats LLC at (509) 684-3448 for further instructions.
