Stone Meats Inc., based in Pleasant View, Utah, is voluntarily recalling approximately 11,250 pounds of fresh ground beef products that may contain pieces of metal, FSIS has announced.
The following products are subject to recall:
5-pound packages (chubs) of "GROUND BEEF 73% LEAN - 27% FAT." Each label bears a "sell-by" date of "09/19/07" and followed by "EST#6214 7," "EST#6214 8," "EST#6214 9," or "EST#6214 10."
The products were produced on September 5, and were distributed to retail
grocery stores in Utah and Mesquite, Nev. These products should no longer be available in grocery stores, but may be in consumers' refrigerators and freezers.
The problem was discovered after the company received consumer complaints. One injury has been reported from handling these products.
