If your Labor Day plans included throwing a few pre-made pork burgers on the grill you might want to check your brand of choice. That’s because, just in time for the holiday weekend, Johnsonville announced a recall of pork patties that may contain decidedly untasty metal fragments.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced the recall of approximately 89,235 pounds of frozen Cheddar Cheese & Bacon Grillers under the Johnsonville brand.

Kenosha Beef International and Johnsonville became aware of the issue after receiving several consumer complaints that small pieces of metal were being found in the pork products.

“Although there have been just a handful of incidents reported to us, no injuries have occurred and we believe the risk to be minimal, we take no chances when it comes to protecting our consumers’ health and safety,” Johnsonville says on its website. “Because there’s the potential of this affected product being in the market, the voluntary recall was initiated.”

The cheddar cheese and bacon flavored frozen patties were sold in 24-ounce cartons and 13.5-pound cases at retail stores in Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Texas and Wisconsin.

The products can be identified by an establishment number “EST. 425B” and a “BEST FLAVOR BY” date of “12/29/15” on the end flap of the package.

If you no longer have the carton and just the heat-sealed plastic bag containing the Grillers, you will see both these same numbers printed on the outside of the bag, but in a different format: 425B BFB122915.

Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
