The JBS Food Canada establishment in Brooks, Alberta, is recalling about 38,406 pounds of boneless beef head meat products that were not presented for import re-inspection into the United States, USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced late Thursday. The raw, frozen, boneless beef head meat items were imported on July 13 and further processed by another company into ground beef products.
The following products are subject to recall:

  • 80-lb. boxes containing eight, 10-lb. chubs of “BALTER MEAT COMPANY 73/27 GROUND BEEF,” with “USE BY/FREEZE BY” dates of 08/09/2020 or 08/10/2020, pack dates of 072020, 072120, or 072220, and lot codes of 2020A or 2030A represented on the label.
The products subject to recall bear establishment number “EST. 11126” inside the USDA mark of inspection. The items were shipped to distribution centers in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina for further distribution to retail locations.
The problem was discovered when FSIS determined through routine surveillance that the product had bypassed FSIS import reinspection.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
FSIS is concerned that some productsmay be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers. The items should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
