CTI Foods recalls 3 tonnes of ready-to-eat steaks due to possible listeria contamination

CTI Foods, an Owingsville, Ky., establishment, is recalling approximately 6,720 pounds of ready-to-eat (RTE) Philly Beef Steak products that may be adulterated with Listeria monocytogenes.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) said that the problem was discovered on September 7, 2018, when the establishment received results from their laboratory that four finished product samples from their August 9, 2018, production were potentially positive for Listeria monocytogenes.

The Ready-To-Eat Philly Beef Steak products were produced on August 9, 2018. The company had to recall 672 cardboard cases labeled Classic Sysco having a net weight of 10 lbs. The cardboard cases contain four 2.5 lb. bags of product and they were labeled “Fully Cooked Philly Beef Steak Sliced Caramel Color Added."

The items were shipped to a food service warehouse in Hamilton, Ohio and were further distributed to food service locations.

FSIS announced that there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
