Pricey only buy ground beef when on sale. Buy mostly Pork & Chicken. I usually eat deer instead of beef. Yep deer ground with bacon , at around 15-20 percent ratio for everything I would use beef for. Pork butts work well too. Around here they’re sometimes 0.99 a pound. Frequently at $1.29. Mix at 30% pig 70% venison. Yes they work real good , I use them too.

It's white shrimp season here. Been getting medium / large caught nightly for $3 / lb head on. That works out to around $4 - $4.50 / lb pure meat. I don't have much room for beef! Wish I still had a hook up on them shrimp, they can be cooked so many ways , just ask Bubba .

Graded Prime. It's high because only 3% of cattle hit the mark. And virtually nothing with Bos Indicus influence hits that mark. So that leaves a whole lot of southern cattle out.
That's old data. Since 2015, the average % of prime grade cattle has increased almost 2% per year, and is now above 10%. The herd, nationwide, is improving, but yes, that Brahma blood doesn't grade prime. That's ok, because at the same time, 45% of US beef is consumed as hamburger.......

It's easy when you lower standards to include more beef.

I bought a steer some months ago.
Cost me $850.00. Grass fed, the switched to corn/grain for 3 months.
Went to the packer last Tuesday. Was whacked Wednesday.
$85.00 to whack him, and processing is 0.80 a hanging pound. He should weigh about 600- 700 pounds, hanging.
Counting liver, heart, and tongue, should get somewhere around 300 to 400 pounds back, ready for the freezer.
Looking like maaaaybe, $ 5.00 a pound, straight across the board.
