An area meat processor is issuing a voluntary Class-1 recall for a variety of its meat products. This includes products purchased on or before September 14th from Salchert’s Meats’ retail location in St. Cloud. Those products include vacuum-sealed frozen smoked chicken, dried beef and beef jerky.
A Class-1 recall is issued when there’s a reasonable probability that consuming the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death. USDA Inspectors making a routine visit found evidence that those products were produced without an approved formula, and were not produced under an appropriate Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point food safety plan.
No illnesses have been reported so far; anyone with signs or symptoms of a foodborne illness should contact their doctor, and anyone with those products should discard them.
