    Most likely went to cold storage right away to be mixed amongst other loads of meat to avoid detection then trailer gets dumped somewhere
    Or maybe re boxed at apacker werehouse

    When someone’s gonna steal over a quarter million dollars worth of beef in one swipe, they’ve already got a buyer lined up for it. They’re not gonna sit on it in some cold storage or cart the thing around the country. They hook the trailer and go from point a to point B. My guess is they get $25-$35K for a hook and drop load.

    Well, it'd certainly make for one heckuva BBQ, lol... I used to haul those IBP loads, some of 'em were worth more than what was listed. Here's another thought: maybe the thieves were preppers looking to make jerky out of that meat, lol. :confused:
