Frozen raw beef distributed to Arizona recalled

More than 20,000 pounds of frozen raw beef products imported from Uruguay are being recalled because the USDA says they did not go through proper inspection before entering the United States.

South American Meat, Inc., says the meat was "not presented to FSIS for import reinspection upon entry to the United States."

"The problem was discovered during routine FSIS surveillance activities of imported products, and FSIS determined that the products were not presented for FSIS import reinspection," officials said.
