FORT MORGAN, Colo. -- Cargill Meat Solutions, a Fort Morgan company, is recalling more than 25,000 pounds of ground beef over concerns of possible E. coli contamination.

The ground beef items were produced Aug. 16, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service news release.

Cargill is recalling 10-pound “chubs” of beef, which have been shipped to “warehouses in Colorado and California,” according to the USDA. The chubs are typically repackaged and distributed to retailers.
