Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Hickory Hollow Jerky is recalling approximately 6,229 pounds of various beef and bacon jerky products because they were produced and distributed without the benefit of federal inspection. The recall includes 10 different varieties produced between January 19, 2024, and August 21, 2024, under two different owners. While there have been no confirmed reports of illness, the products were sold at retail stores in five states and through internet sales.

Risk

These products were manufactured without the required federal oversight and inspection, which means their safety cannot be guaranteed. Consumption of uninspected meat products may pose a risk of foodborne illness.

  3. Return the product to the place of purchase for a refund, throw it away, or contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
