Besides meat, the extras like buns, condiments, beverages and dairy are also seeing an increase in cost.
Ronesha Pierce's family already came up with a new plan this year to offset increasing costs. She spoke to us while setting up in Fairmount Park.
Vernon Andrews was tasked with cooking the meat for his family reunion in Fairmount Park Saturday through Monday.Ann Edmonson is on the same page. Outside of the Fresh Grocer in Wynnefield Heights on Saturday she said she also made different meat choices. "They already pre-frozen and stuff like that," said Edmonson. She said she would normally buy the "real ribs with the big bones and everything."
"Yes, we're not really buying as much as we used to just because of the cost of everything has increased, but still we want to have a good time with our families. We're making it happen," she said.
