WASHINGTON, April 29, 2010 - The Murphy House,
a Louisburg, N.C., establishment, is recalling 414 lbs. of
Brunswick stew products because they contain cracker meal with
undeclared allergens, wheat and milk, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS)
announced today. Wheat and milk are known allergens, which are
not declared on the label.
The following products are subject to recall:

- 5 lb. packages of "MURPHY HOUSE BARBECUE OUR OLD
FASHIONED BRUNSWICK STEW" produced on April 2, 2010.
- 24-ounce cups of "MURPHY HOUSE OUR OLD FASHIONED
BRUNSWICK STEW" produced on April 2, 2010.
Each package bears the establishment number "EST. 2135" inside
the USDA mark of inspection. Cases and individual packages bear
the sell-by date of 05/17/10.
The beef stew products were distributed at the wholesale and
retail level in North Carolina.
The problem was discovered during a Food Safety Assessment of
operations at the establishment by FSIS personnel. FSIS has
received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of
these products. Anyone concerned about an allergic reaction
should contact a physician.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify
recalling firms notify their customers (including restaurants)
of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the
product is no longer available to consumers.
Consumer and media inquiries regarding the recall should be
directed to Josh Whitely, Vice President, at (919) 496-6054.
Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual
representative available 24 hours a day at

Meat and Poultry Hotline 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) is available
