Me too, Thank God I saw that before I put my order in. You would have to be an Idiot to buy Raw Meat from a company that is going out of business AFTER an E Coli contamination.

E. choli is very effective killed by cooking beef to 160 degrees. If you're concerned, don't get any steaks that are gonna be served rare, but with something like brisket that needs 3+ hours of cooking you're only talking about a psychological "yuck" factor, not any health risk.

or they are going out of business to reopen with a new name that doesn;t have the stigma of an ecoli breakout. Just like valuJet did after their plane went down in the Everglades. Ever heard of AirTran?

It's good that it was brought up, but IMO some people on this thread are making a fool of themselves. Most of us are capable of making our own decisions without the comments of others.

Not true and corn fed is not organic since most corn is genetically altered

ALL corn is genetically altered. Of course, all living organisms are genetically altered...

Organic != Grass Fed, which is nutritionally superior to "Organic" and corn-fed.

Either way, I don't trust any company that would ship beef.

No thanks necessary; I enjoy helping, one lazy FW member at a time!

I agree that some here need to dig deep and muster up some energy to do a google search, but googling the phrase "davis mountains e coli" may not be the right way to go about this. If you google "[any beef seller] e coli", you're going to find what you're looking for; namely, that that beef seller (try Safeway, Costco, Tyson) has recalled a shipment of beef at one time or another.

Deja vu. I guess you can't take a hint.

I disagree. Any mass producer is going to sell beef with E. Coli contamination. If you don't assume that when you eat beef, you're playing Russian roulette.

I eat beef regularly. To eliminate the risk, handle it properly so you don't cross-contaminate your entire kitchen/family. Cook ground beef until the juices run clear. A rare steak is fine - as long as the surface reaches proper cooking temperatures, you've got nothing to worry about. Ground beef is a problem because E. Coli can be mixed all through the burger, justifying the need to cook it throughout.

Everything soldout. Now they are back in business, thanks to FW!
