Meat inspection in Connecticut

Connecticut isn't on USDA FSIS's list of states that run their own meat and poultry inspection program, so meat and poultry plants in Connecticut that need inspection are inspected by FSIS, the federal agency. This is about Connecticut in general, not about this business, so ask the business how its meat is inspected. (USDA FSIS list of state inspection programs)
