JARRATT, VA (CVILLE RIGHT NOW) – South central Virginia-based Boar’s Head Provisions is expanding its July 26 recall of deli meat products that may be adulterated with Listeria.
The USDA says Boar’s Head is recalling approximately 7 million additional pounds of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products. Whole genome sequencing results show that a liverwurst sample collected by the Maryland Department of Health tested positive for the outbreak strain of Listeria monocytogenes.

This expansion includes 71 products produced between May 10, 2024, and July 29, 2024, under the Boar’s Head and Old Country brand names… going back about a month longer from the initial recall. These items include meat intended for slicing at retail delis as well as some packaged meat and poultry products sold at retail locations. These products have “sell by” dates ranging from 29-JUL-2024 through 17-OCT-24.
CBS News reports the listeria outbreak as of Tuesday is responsible for sickening 34 people in 13 states, two of whom died.
