Washington, DC: Colorado Meat Packers, of Denver, CO, is recalling approximately 2,234 pounds of beef trim that were improperly labeled and potentially adulterated.

The product label includes "For Cooking Only," indicating that it is intended for further processing to apply a full lethality at a federally inspected establishment. Because the product was sent to a federal establishment that does not conduct lethality operations, the product must be removed from commerce.

The following product is subject to recall:

2,234 lbs. Combo Bin of All Beef Trimmings.

The bin bears the establishment number "EST. 17086" inside the USDA mark of inspection, can be identified by the case code "9002 N." The ground beef trim was produced on December 2, 2010 and sent to a federal establishment in Colorado for further processing without testing. All testing conducted on other trim produced on the same day from the same source materials was negative for E. coli O157:H7.
