Plain-English summary
Standard Meat Company, a Saginaw, Texas establishment, is recalling up to 53,154 pounds of raw beef products that may be contaminated with Salmonella. The recall involves frozen, marinated top sirloin steaks produced between February 19, 2018, and March 14, 2018. The contamination stems from a non-meat ingredient, Au Jus Seasoning, which was found positive for Salmonella and used in the marinade injected into the steaks.
The affected products include approximate 20-lb. boxes of 6 oz Top Sirloin Steak (case code 45966) and approximate 30-lb. boxes of 8 oz Top Sirloin Steak (case code 45968). These items bear establishment number EST. 33861 and were shipped to restaurant locations nationwide. While the products were shipped frozen to restaurants for cooking, FSIS notes that some product may be in consumers' refrigerators as leftovers.
There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them and should throw them away or return them to the place of purchase. FSIS advises cooking steak to an internal temperature of 145°F to kill harmful bacteria.
