United Food Group Ground Beef Recall Expanded

Update to below: This recall has been expanded to include 5.7 million pounds of ground beef.


United Food Group LLC has expanded its June 3 recall of 75,000 pounds of ground beef to 370,000 pounds of ground beef due to E. coli cases in several states. The recalled products were shipped to retail distribution centers in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. These distribution centers may have shipped the beef to additional states.

The original recall included ground beef processed at a California plant on June 20. The expanded recall includes ground beef processed at the same plant on June 13. 

Given the extensive nature of this recall, anyone who is or has been diagnosed with E. coli since June 13 should contact Attorney Fred Pritzker for help in determining if the E. coli infection is linked to the recalled ground beef. To contact the firm, please call toll-free at 1-888-377-8900 or submit the online consultation form for review by an attorney at Pritzker law.

The recalled ground beef sold under the brand names Moran's, Miller Meat Company, 1st Street, Stater Bros., Inter-American Products, Inc., and Sir Basha, Bashas.  The labels of the products subject to recall bear the establishment number "EST. 1241" inside the USDA mark of inspection or printed on the package.
