Kenosha Beef International is recalling approximately 89,235 lb of pork sausage patty products that may be contaminated with extraneous materials, the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA FSIS) announced Sept. 2.

13.5-lb cases of Johnsonville Grillers Cheddar Cheese & Bacon Flavor containing nine, 24-oz cartons of the product
Retail products subject to recall bear the establishment number “EST. 425B” and a “Best Flavor By” date of “12/29/15” on the end flap of the package. Cases of the recalled product bear the establishment number “EST. 425B” inside the USDA mark of inspection on the generic label. These items were shipped to retail locations in Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Texas, and Wisconsin.
