The U.S. Department of Agriculture has issued an urgent Class One recall for nearly thirty thousand pounds of raw beef imported from Argentina. Federal officials say Aventura-based Corte Argentino distributed the frozen cuts to retailers and restaurants across Florida. The meat completely bypassed mandatory federal safety reinspections upon entering the country. While no illnesses have been reported, consumers are urged to check their freezers and toss the products immediately.
The recalled beef was produced by Frigorífico Gorina SAIC in Argentina and features use-by or freeze-by dates between September 15, 2026, and September 20, 2026.
The boxes display Argentine establishment number "EST. N° OF. 2025" and shipping mark "26644-AA".
The Corte Argentino beef recall was officially issued by federal regulators on August 7, 2026. This specific health alert occurred weeks before President Trump signed the broader August 26, 2026 proclamation expanding tariff-free ground beef imports to lower consumer grocery prices. The Trump administration insists the plan is a vital economic measure to slash soaring grocery prices by 25%.
