Pig Bar-b-q in Callahan

Pig Bar-B-Q in Callahan has a substantial compliance burden. Over 23 inspections dating to 2022, the facility accumulated 267 violations—averaging 11.6 per inspection, more than double Florida's statewide average of 5.2. High-priority violations have been persistent and systemic: improper hand and arm washing was cited in at least 4 separate inspections; employee health policy and reporting violations appeared repeatedly; chemical storage violations were documented in multiple years; food contact surface contamination was a recurring finding across at least 5 inspections; shell stock handling violations appeared in at least 6 inspections; and time-as-control method violations—indicating inadequate temperature control protocols—were cited in at least 2 of the last 3 inspections. The facility has not experienced an emergency closure, but formal enforcement escalated significantly: after a clean inspection on September 17, 2024, violations resurged at the October 2024 inspection, prompting a Warning Issued disposition. On February 3, 2025, another routine inspection documented 14 violations including management awareness failures and chemical storage issues, again resulting in an Administrative complaint recommended disposition. The most recent inspection on October 22, 2025 found 48 violations including 8 high-priority issues spanning toxic substance control, handwashing, shell stock, food contact surfaces, cooking temperatures, and time-control methods, again resulting in an Administrative complaint recommended disposition. This escalating pattern of high-priority violations and formal enforcement actions indicates systemic management failures in food safety protocols.
