USDA Recalls Over 160,000 Pounds of Meat at Highest Risk Level
The recall has been given the agency's most serious classification.
Star Meat Delivery Inc. is recalling about 167,639 pounds of raw pork, beef, and goat. The products lacked federal inspection and carried labels showing a fraudulent USDA inspection mark. Routine surveillance by the Food Safety and Inspection Service uncovered the problem, and the USDA placed the recall in its most serious risk category.
The affected meat was made before September 22, 2026, then sold in bulk with A&D Foods branding. Shipments first went to a Georgia distributor and later reached restaurants and retail locations across the country. Packages may display establishment number “EST. 1363,” although store-added pricing and handling stickers mean some products might not show that identifier.
No illnesses or injuries have been reported. The USDA says uninspected food can pose risks from harmful bacteria, allergens that are not disclosed, or other contamination. Consumers who find affected meat at home should not eat it; the agency says to discard it or take it back to the seller. Recall questions may be emailed to starmeatdelivery@gmail.com or directed by phone to Star Meat Delivery Inc. using 252-239-0610. Anyone who consumed the meat and has health concerns should contact a doctor.
