How much would this be in your area? To me, this looks like a $200 platter

    Central Texas so I’m going to $450,000

    I’m from a state that doesn’t make much BBQ. Everything is wildly expensive. There’s pie on that tray. $400

    Free when you find a nasty beard hair in it.

    I live in New England, so instead of all the cool sides you would get a massive pile of fries and spend $300 for the worst BBQ of your life.

    At least $250… when I first moved to Texas I got overly excited and ended up paying $170 at Terry Black’s… they even gave me a free hat lmfao and it was not even half of that 😂 (almost all meat tho)

  6. At least $300 in Central Texas. Probably close to $400.

    More than 200 anywhere that serves quality BBQ. There’s a lot of cost on that platter.

    California it costs your first born, house, and 10% for the big guy.

    Can’t even see the whole platter but based on what we can see I think between 200 and 250 makes sense

  10. Not a single place near me would even be able to produce such a spread. They all just want to put a few ounces of meat on a bun and give you a couple of sad little sides for $20.

    Average American serving size. Human for scale

    Big dons smoked meats, it’s in Perth, Australia. Open 1 day a week, pre-order only sells about in 2-3 minutes a week.

    Platters are around $200 AUD (they vary from week to week) but they do till specials also, this platter has everything on there so I’d say around $400 AUD for that particular tray.

    Alaska here. Have to start with the cost of a 2,000+ mile plane ticket and build price from there.

    Beef is going to be insanely expensive in the US for at least the next two years.

    Source: wife is a veterinarian.

    We’ve closed beef imports from Mexico, and we used to import a loooot of beef from them. We apparently tried everything we could, but Mexico couldn’t get rid of the screw worm (a type of botfly, really gross and ruins steers). So we had to, to protect American producers.

    But, from breeding to slaughter weight, it’s about a 2.5-3 year cycle, and the first hints of the screw worm thing were late last summer into fall. So at the earliest, we’re 2 years away from American producers being able to bring increased production to the consumer’s table – and even that is more expensive than beef from Mexico was because of the coat of labor.

    Sorry, folks. It’s gonna get worse before it gets better.
