Listeria Recall: J and B Meats Bratwurst

The Minnesota Department of Agriculture is warning consumers not to eat smoked pork and beef bratwurst make by J&B Meats of Barnesville, Minnesota, with the lot number PBB30306, and Minnesota State Establishment Number 1198. The recalled J&B Meats bratwurst may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a potentially-fatal foodborne pathogen. The contamination was found through routine testing.

J&B Meats sold the bratwurst at its retail store in Barnesville, about 20 miles southeast of Moorhead. J&B Meats is asking consumers to return any recalled bratwurst to the store. However, if someone has eaten any of the bratwurst, it should be kept in the freezer and labeled “Do not eat” for at least 70 days (Listeria incubation period) after the date it was consumed. If the person(s) who ate the recalled bratwurst are diagnosed with a Listeria infection (listeriosis), the recalled bratwurst may be evidence.

According to the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, there are no reports of illnesses from the product. The sausages are often sold frozen, meaning people who do not hear of this recall could eat the bratwurst months from now.
