Due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, the Purdue Premium Meat Company has recalled 3,384 pounds of fully cooked beef hot dog products in Michigan, New York, and Pennsylvania.

The recall occurred Monday (July 31) as Michigan food bank recipients were being notified that they may have received the affected product.

The fully-cooked beef hot dogs were produced on May 3, 2023.

The Purdue Premium Meat Company was doing business as Alexander and Hornung, a St. Clair Shores establishment.

The problem with the hot dogs was discovered when the establishment notified the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) that one of their customers reported receiving products labeled as beef weiners in cartons labeled as hot smoked sausage.
