Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Good Food Concepts, LLC. is recalling approximately 1,290 pounds of raw beef products under the Callicrate Beef and Ranch Foods Direct brands. The recall was initiated because the beef may be contaminated with E. coli O26, which was discovered during plant testing of carcass trimmings. No illnesses have been reported to date, but the products were shipped to retail stores, wholesalers, and restaurants in Colorado.

Risk

The beef may contain E. coli O26, a bacterium that can cause severe stomach cramps, diarrhea (often bloody), and vomiting. While most people recover within a week, some—especially young children and the elderly—may develop a serious kidney condition called hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS).

What You Should Do

  1. Check your beef packaging for establishment number 'EST. 27316' inside the USDA mark of inspection and look for the specific brand names and lot codes.
  2. Identify affected products by checking for lot codes 170731CC, 170803, or 170804. See the Affected Products section below for the full list of affected codes.
  3. Return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund, throw it away, or contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
  4. If you have health concerns after consuming these products, contact your healthcare provider immediately.
  5. Call the USDA Meat & Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854 for additional food safety questions.
