Nebraska Beef, Ltd and Coleman Brand Ground Beef. Associated with Cases in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Illnois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia
An E. coli outbreak that has sickened people in at least 12 states and Cananda has been associated with Nebraska Beef, Ltd. beef products that were sold under the Coleman brand. As a result, Nebraska Beef recalled 1.2 million pounds of ground beef.
We have contacted a number of the states involved in this outbreak, and the investigation is ongoing. To date, states involved in this outbreak include the following: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia.
Nebraska Beef produced the recalled products on June 17, June 24 and July 8, 2008. The shipping containers and product labels bear the establishment number “EST. 19336” inside the USDA mark of inspection as well as the brand “Coleman Natural.” However, these products were sent to establishments and retail stores nationwide for further processing and will likely not bear the establishment number “EST. 19336” on products available for direct consumer purchase.
On July 3, Nebraska Beef recalled 5.3 million pounds of beef manufacturing trimmings and other products intended for use in raw ground beef produced between May 16 and June 26. This recall also involved some Coleman brand products. This recall was prompted by an E. coli outbreak that sickened people in Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, New York, Ohio, and Utah.

We have filed a lawsuit against Nebraska Beef. Read more about the Nebraska Beef lawsuit.
