Meat in freezer

[HoofsandWings]

Although some of you will be still looking for that trophy, many of us will be looking for meat.
It may become a rare commodity by this fall.

I was talking about grocery stores and meat markets.

Fortunately there’s no sign of a shortage of food. Question is why isn’t your freezer all ready full 🤔.

You guys only have one freezer?

[bhawley76]

I just thought everyone had three or four.

The meat will come back,  we have massive warehouses filled with frozen quarters and primals to be shipped off to grocery store meat market, yes there's a slight lag due to panic buying,  but like TP......IT WILL COME BACK

If you want to know when to "panic buy" beef,  then keep an eye on live beef prices,  right now they're abysmally low when compared to packed meat on the shelf.   

Once live beef prices skyrocket then the packers are in full buy mode and warehouses running low of stock.

This price gouging you're seeing now is the packers making money off this virus,  the ranchers and beef producers are not seeing a penny of it.

I would guess most people out there just have the little freezer attached to their fridge, so the masses stockpiling meat is unlikely.  Nobody in an apartment is going to have a chest freezer, and probably relatively few people that dont hunt or fish.

20 cubic feet of supplies at the ready....had to move a full packer brisket to make room for the just laid in 50# of coho.

3 almost full freezers  and a few deer and elk eating my horse hay everyday if things get really bad
