Reason for recall

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27, 2022 – Lone Star Bakery, Inc., a China Grove, Texas establishment, is recalling approximately 5,740 pounds of beef shepherd’s pie products that may be contaminated with extraneous materials, specifically copper wire pieces, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The frozen beef shepherd’s pie products were produced on April 1, 2022, with a use by date of Sept. 23, 2023. The following products are subject to recall [view labels]: 8-oz. carton packages containing “BOOMERANG’S BEEF SHEPHERD’S PIE” with “USE BY 092323” on the label. The products subject to recall bear establishment number “Est. 31772” inside the USDA mark of inspection. These items were shipped to distributor and retail locations in California, Florida, Georgia, and Texas.

There have been no confirmed reports of injury associated with consumption of this product, but FSIS believes the copper wire pieces could be sharp and possibly cause an injury.
