Meat Recalled by Louisiana Manufacturer

The USDA announced yesterday that Belle Rose, Louisiana based food manufacturer A La Carte Foods Properties, LLC is recalling more than 30,000 lbs of packaged ready-to-eat chicken and pork products produced since January 2017 for five restaurants in Louisiana and Texas.

Although there have not been any illnesses reported from consumption of the products, the products were manufactured without the benefit of federal inspection, which violates federal food safety regulations.

The recalled products include jambalaya, gumbo and red beans with sausage, all sent frozen in 12-pound packages. A La Carte sells more than 100 items to restaurants under its own brands, A La Carte and Southern Casual.
