Brazilian establishment SIF 337 was delisted on May 6, 2010 after repeat violative levels of the animal drug Ivermectin were confirmed in its products. Sampco recalled 87,000 pounds of beef this May because of that potential contaminant. FSIS has recently determined that eight lots of product from Brazilian establishment SIF 337 have been shipped into commerce despite the firm's ineligible status. As a result, FSIS and Sampco, Inc. are taking action to remove the products from commerce. Consumers who have purchased any of these products should return them to their point of purchase.
The products are subject to recall include cans of Libby Corned Beef, Kroger Corned Beef, pouched of Bushy Creek Shredded Beef and packages of Bushy Creek Roast Beef. Each product package bears "BRASIL 337 S.I.F," as well as "Product of Brazil" or "Packed under Brazilian Government Inspection."
