Before you fire up the grill for your next barbecue, check the labels on your ribs: More than 40,000 pounds of raw pork products, including boneless pork ribs in sauce and ready-to-heat pork, have been recalled by Canadian company Eastern Meat Solutions, Inc.
The raw, boneless pork products were not "presented for import reinspection" when they were shipped into the United States from Canada, says the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
