Nebraska Beef E. coli and Colquitt County Georgia Do Not Mix

By Bill Marler, Esq.

According to WALB TV 10:

A Moultrie restaurant bought tainted beef from a Nebraska distributor, which also supplied beef linked to an E. coli outbreak in Michigan and Ohio. The Barbeque Pit Steak and Seafood Restaurant voluntarily closed last Thursday at the request of the health department. Health officials called in the USDA who met Tuesday morning with the restaurant's owners and Public Health officials. They say the meat contaminated at the Moultrie restaurant was not ground beef, but it was beef from Nebraska Beef with the same date on it as the meat recalled in Michigan and Ohio.

My guess is that there will be more illnesses.
