Texans have taken to "cowpooling," or buying beef in bulk with others and splitting the cost in an effort to make beef purchases more economical. Drought led so many cattle producers to sell cattle in 2022, so cattle numbers were down, and prices for beef were expected to rise in 2023, leading people to devise ways to keep costs down where possible.
