Grill masters and taco Tuesday fans have had good reason to wince at the price of beef lately. Beef prices have been high for years, but over the past six months, they’ve been higher than ever. The average cost of a sirloin steak reached a record-high $11.72 per pound in February. The average price was $11.66 per pound in April. Ground beef, which consumers typically turn to when other cuts of meat get pricey, set its own record back in November, when it cost an average of $5.35 per pound.
