Sorry folks ...
I am probably in the minority? The increase in prices WILL NOT affect my willingness or ability to buy product to put on the pit.
Certainly I understand the escalating prices are of concern to many, but .50 per pound here and .75 per pound there are not going to put the brakes on the hobby I enjoy greatly. Don't you think it is akin to gas prices ... you deal with it? |

No. I have already been buying much less beef. There are other tasty foods out there besides just beef. I don't have options to gas, really.

A while back one of our Canadian members posted a cook and IIRC the price of the beef they cooked was about 1/2 what we Americans are paying.
I've been meaning to post this from Yahoo News for everyone to see. 4 companies control about 85% of all US beef production. Can't get the link to post I'll try another link to a similar story http://www.hcn.org/issues/43.5/cattl...-meatpackers-1 You can search Google for "4 companies control beef production" and find the Yahoo article I tried to post.

Supply and demand. They and other places may end up with a lot of out of date meat. They always start high but look for prices to drop.

Butt pricing as of 4/5/14 $2.04/lb case price. I did get to pick up 2 at $1.49/lb and a local grocery store. All they had was 2 I would have bought 6 or 8 more. |

Ok we have another place here that sells cases that are 78 lbs so it seems to be the standard.

By the way, as soon as I see a sale for pork butt at $1.50 a pound I am gonna buy a boatload of it and throw it in my freezer. I got this freezer to save money, yet there haven't been any good sales I've seen here in Tulsa in the past 3 weeks.
