[QUOTE="glacierridge, post: 1099974, member: 19539"] Um... The price on good lean ground is getting high... Our sale barn has been getting higher and higher on a good slaughter cow, going over a dollar a pound on the hoof. It's really not much more to buy a quality quarter direct from the farm vs. ground. Even privately sold ground with no middle man is going 3.50-4.00/lb in my area, let alone what organic or grass fed prices are. And higher end grocers go even higher. Beef in general is going high because they're is a "shortage" Herd numbers aren't what they used to be because of drought reducing them and other factors of nature. There really is money to be made in all areas of the beef industry. Especially since ground no longer goes cheap. The only time you see cheap ground is when you come across the 70/30 garbage, even that has a high enough price tag. [/QUOTE]
