# Argentine beef recall in the United States > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/argentine-beef-recall-in-the-united-states > Updated: 2026-08-13T05:00:59.000Z. Sources: 24. Developments: 2. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a Class I recall for approximately 29,628 pounds of raw beef imported from Argentina. The recall was initiated because the shipment, distributed by Florida-based Corte Argentino USA LLC, bypassed mandatory federal import reinspection. The affected products were produced by Frigorífico Gorina SAIC between May 15 and May 20, 2026, and were distributed to retailers and distributors in Florida and Texas. Various cuts were included, such as Top Sirloin Butt, Eye Round, Topside Cap Off, Flat, and Knuckle. The products carry use or freeze-by dates between September 15 and September 20, 2026. While the FSIS classified the recall as a health hazard with a ‘reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death’, there have been no confirmed reports of illness or injury. Argentine Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno has since clarified that the recall stems from an ‘administrative error by the importer’ rather than concerns regarding food safety, contamination, or product quality. The importer has reportedly issued a document assuming responsibility for the oversight. Officials emphasized that the Argentine sanitary system remains intact and that beef exports to the United States continue to operate normally. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-13: Argentine beef recalled in US over inspection error The USDA has recalled nearly 30,000 pounds of Argentine beef in Florida and Texas due to a failure to complete mandatory reinspections.
