The Halal Beef Soujouk products were produced between November 13 and December 3, 2014. The following products are subject to recall:
- 16-oz. hoops of “YÖRÜK BRAND HALAL BEEF SOUJOUK DRIED BEEF SAUSAGE.”

Additionally, Shirk’s Meats, a Dundee, N.Y. establishment, is recalling approximately 1,062 pounds of pork sausage product due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The product contains peanuts, a known allergen which is not declared on the product label.
The following product subject to recall was produced on November 26, 2014:
- 30-lb. bags of “Smoked Pork Andouille Sausage.”
The products subject to recall bear the establishment number “EST. 18894” inside the USDA mark of inspection and were shipped to a firm in New York for further processing, and distribution to retail locations.
The problem was discovered when the processors were notified by their spice supplier that the cumin in a spice mix used to formulate the sausage may have been contaminated with peanut allergens. FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. There have now been a total of nine recalls since mid-December that are related to contaminated cumin.
