WASHINGTON, Feb. 11, 2019 – Panola County Processing, LLC, a Carthage, Texas establishment, is voluntarily recalling approximately 59 pounds of smoked sausage products due to a processing deviation that may have led to underprocessing of products, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today.

inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were distributed to a

The problem was discovered by FSIS personnel while performing verification
activities at the establishment on Feb.8, 2019.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to
consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness

FSIS is concerned that some product may be frozen and in consumers’
freezers or refrigerators. 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.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling
firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make
certain that the product is no longer available to consumers. When
available, the retail distribution lists will be posted on the FSIS website
