A popular Midwest hot dog manufacturer has been forced to recall thousands of pounds of product due to possible metal contamination.

Vienna Beef Ltd., based out of Chicago, has issued the recall for approximately 2,030 pounds of “skinless beef frankfurters” bearing specific product packaging codes, and which were shipped to Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, according to a USDA product recall notice issued Saturday.
