PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- A frozen, ready-to-eat pepperoni roll product is being recalled due to the possibility of extraneous materials in the meat.

The Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) says almost 3,000 lbs. of pepperoni products from Ohio's P&S Bakery, Inc. are being recalled. The products were sold in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

The recall affects 5.25-oz. clear plastic wrapped packages containing one piece of Gia Russa brand "Double Stuffed Pepperoni Roll -- Pepperoni & Mozzarella."
