Burger's Ozark Country Cured in California, Mo., is recalling approximately 150 pounds of pulled pork products due to misbranding according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service.

The seasoned pulled pork items were produced and packaged on Jan. 26, 2016. The product has the correct label on the front, but an incorrect label for a beef brisket product on the back. The following product is subject to recall: 1-pound microwaveable tray packages containing "Burger's Smokehouse Signature Sauce Seasoned Pulled Pork with Barbeque Sauce."

The products subject to recall bear establishment number "EST. 1161" inside the USDA mark of inspection and contain case code P816W with a use by/freeze by date of Aug. 13, 2016. These items were shipped to retail locations in Missouri.

The problem was discovered through a customer who called the company's service line.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a health care provider.  

Consumers with food safety questions can call the toll-free USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline, 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. (Eastern Time) Monday through Friday.
