Brooke Martin+FollowWhy beef prices are breaking recordsBeef prices have hit levels that longtime local farmers and butchers say they’ve never seen before. Years of drought have driven up feed costs, forcing many to send cows to the butcher early, which shrinks the future beef supply and keeps prices high. At some local markets, ground beef is now over $6 a pound—more than double what it was just a few years ago. Some small businesses are absorbing the extra costs instead of passing them on, but it’s tough. Supporting local farmers and butchers is more important than ever. How are these prices changing your shopping or eating habits? #Business #Industry #beefprices1344Share
Jerry Clark+FollowWhy Steak Night Is Getting PricierEver wonder why your favorite steak is suddenly a splurge? Turns out, it’s not just inflation—years of drought have shrunk the cattle supply to its lowest in 70 years. Ranchers are feeling the pinch, and so are our wallets. With beef prices at record highs, you might want to try more plant-based meals or swap in cheaper proteins. Smart shopping and meal planning can help stretch your grocery budget until things cool off at the meat counter. #Business #Industry #beefprices30Share
Arthur Booker+FollowWhy Your BBQ Is Burning Your WalletEver notice your grocery bill sizzle when you buy beef lately? It’s not your imagination—beef prices are at a record high, up 11% in a year, thanks to a cow shortage from drought and pricey feed. Even though eggs and other foods are cheaper, steak is now a splurge. Pro tip: Grill less now, and stock up on steak when prices dip after summer. Home-cooked steak still beats restaurant prices! #Business #Industry #BeefPrices00Share
Arthur Booker+FollowWhy Your Steak Night Is About to Get PricierHeads up, grill fans: beef prices are set to sizzle higher soon. The reason? The U.S. just hit pause on Mexican cattle imports again, all because of a nasty parasite called the screwworm. With less beef crossing the border, prices at your local grocery store or steakhouse could jump by 20% or more. If you’re planning a BBQ, maybe swap in chicken or veggies to keep your wallet happy! #Business #Industry #beefprices2368Share
Kristin Shaw+FollowWhy Beef Prices Might Sizzle SoonHeads up for your next grocery run: cattle prices are on a tear, hitting new highs this week. That means your favorite steak or burger could cost more soon. The reason? Demand for beef is jumping, especially with Labor Day BBQs coming up, and ranchers aren’t sending as many cows to market as last year. If you’re looking to save, now’s the time to stock up before prices climb even higher! #Business #Industry #beefprices143225Share
awaters+FollowWhy Steak Night Costs More (and Isn’t Changing Soon)Ever wonder why your favorite steak is pricier these days? Ranchers want to raise more cattle to cash in on record beef prices, but droughts and sky-high land costs are holding them back. Even with juicy demand, it takes years (and lots of grass) to grow a bigger herd. So, don’t expect beef prices to drop anytime soon—maybe swap that ribeye for chicken if you’re watching your wallet! #Business #Industry #beefprices10Share
Nicholas Coleman+FollowWill Your Burger Get Pricier Soon?Heads up, burger lovers! If the U.S. slaps a 50% tariff on Brazilian beef, your favorite fast-food meal could cost more. Brazil is a top beef supplier for American hamburgers, and if those imports slow down, prices at the drive-thru might jump. The beef industry is scrambling to keep the flow going, but if talks stall, expect your next BBQ or burger run to hit your wallet harder. #Business #Industry #beefprices20Share
Arthur Booker+FollowWhy Steak Night Costs More LatelyEver noticed your burger or steak dinner getting pricier? Turns out, it’s not just you—beef prices are up about 12% from last year! Butcher shops like Bare Bones in Nashville are feeling the squeeze, thanks to smaller cattle herds and wild weather messing with supply. The result? Higher prices at the counter. If you’re looking to save, try swapping beef for chicken or pork, or check out local deals before your next BBQ. #Business #Industry #beefprices10Share
Vincent Perry+FollowWhy Steak Night Might Cost More SoonHeads up, grill fans: cattle prices just took a dip as traders wait for Friday’s big USDA report. Less beef is moving around, and with fewer cows in the pipeline, your next steak dinner could get pricier. Exports are hot—South Korea and Japan are snapping up U.S. beef—so if you see a good deal at the store, you might want to stock up before prices sizzle higher! #Business #Industry #beefprices41Share
awaters+FollowWhy Your Steak Night Costs More NowEver noticed your favorite steak or burger costing way more lately? Beef prices just hit all-time highs, but ranchers say they’re not cashing in. Droughts and pricey cattle feed mean many are barely breaking even, even as we pay $9+ a pound. With U.S. herds at a 74-year low, stores like Walmart are even building their own beef plants to keep shelves stocked. If you’re waiting for prices to drop, don’t hold your breath—things might get pricier before they cool off. #Business #Industry #beefprices00Share
