King Meat Services, Inc. is recalling approximately 50,991 pounds of various beef products, including ribeye, short ribs, and brisket, produced between November 1, 2016, and December 5, 2016. The recall was initiated because the company was caught removing the original supplier's inspection marks and replacing them with their own official marks of inspection. While no illnesses have been reported, these products were shipped to distributors, retail stores, and food service locations throughout California.
The products are misbranded because the official USDA mark of inspection was applied without authorization, meaning the products may not meet the safety or quality standards indicated by the label.
You have 2 options:
Products are vacuum-packed and contained in boxes.
