More than 13,000 pounds of frozen meat pizzas being recalled

Home Run Inn's "Deluxe Sausage Classic Pizza" is being recalled for possibly containing possible metal pieces.

WASHINGTON — About 13,099 pounds of frozen Home Run Inn pizza is being recalled because there may be metal in the pizza, the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced Sunday.

The recall explains the pizzas may be contaminated with "extraneous materials, specifically metal." 

The company said it became aware of the issue after consumers reported finding metal in their pizzas. 

The recall is only for the 33.5 oz  "Home run Inn Chicago's Premium Pizzeria Deluxe Sausage Classic Pizza," with a best by date of Dec. 3, 2022.

The recalled product, which was produced June 6, has an establishment number "EST. 1848-A" inside the USDA mark of inspection.
