Just in time for BBQ season, too.

There are many analysts who provide completely anal analysis.

The contrary was just predicted by the US Dept. of Agriculture in the aftermath of the midwest floods. Ranchers are selling off their cattle due to the loss of pasturage and due to their need to raise capital to rebuild their operations...many of which were not insured for flood losses.

We have our own on the BiL's farm, so we're pretty immune to price increases in beef. Besides we eat mostly chicken and fish, and pork now. Growing up, it was beef a few times week at our place, and at my wife's it was almost every day, sometimes two meals a day. We eat beef maybe three times a month, usually in the form of pot roast or hamburger now, and during the winter as a stew or curry.

All meat is expensive, right now.
