USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has revised its compliance guide for small and very small meat and poultry processors regarding Salmonella and other pathogens in ready-to-eat (RTE) meat and poultry products.

The “FSIS Salmonella Compliance Guidelines for Small and Very Small Meat and Poultry Establishments that Produce Ready-to-Eat Products” provides processors of RTE meat and poultry products with information on regulatory requirements associated with the safe production of those products.

This document also provides information about the processing and safe handling of RTE products after the lethality step to ensure that they are not contaminated with pathogens such as Salmonella or Listeria.
