Raber's Packing Company of Peoria is recalling 21 pounds of its beef jerky because the product was uninspected.  Under state and federal regulations, meat products produced without inspection are considered unfit for human consumption and are required to be recalled.
The product subject to the recall was sold in 25 oz. bags labeled "Grand Champion Raber's Original Beef Jerky."  The packaging bears the establishment number "9" inside the Illinois mark of inspection and a code of "192." The beef jerky was produced July 2, 2014, and then distributed for retail sale in the Peoria area.
