Lombardi Brothers Meats Recalls Steak and Ground Beef Products Due To Possible E. Coli O157:H7 Contamination

Agency Publication Date: July 3, 2015

Summary

Lombardi Brothers Meats is recalling approximately 26,975 pounds of various tenderized steaks and ground beef products, including beef patties and sirloin cuts, produced between June 12 and June 30, 2015. These products were shipped for hotel, restaurant, and institutional use in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. The recall was initiated after the company's internal testing discovered potential E. coli O157:H7 contamination in the source material.

Risk

Consumption of meat contaminated with E. coli O157:H7 can cause dehydration, bloody diarrhea, and abdominal cramps. In severe cases, particularly in children and older adults, it can lead to hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a potentially fatal type of kidney failure.

What You Should Do

Identify affected products by checking for the establishment number 'EST. 772' inside the USDA mark of inspection on the label.
Check the product name and weight against the list of recalled items, which include various Beef Ball Tip, Top Sirloin, Ground Beef, and Beef Patty products produced between June 12 and June 30, 2015.
Do not consume, serve, or sell any of the recalled meat products; they should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
Always use a food thermometer to ensure steaks and roasts are cooked to 145°F (with a 3-minute rest) and ground beef is cooked to 160°F to kill harmful bacteria.
If you have questions regarding the recall, contact Jeff Harvey, Lombardi Brothers Meats General Manager, at (303) 458-7441, ext. 231.
For additional food safety concerns, call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854.
