 It's a labor of love. They might be making  $.50/HR.

IMHO, a labor of love is one of us cooking for our families and friends, labor of this magnitude is strictly for profit (especially at those prices).

For those of you who have made sausage, how much money do you think you have in a pound of it?  Also, how many cooked ribs do you get in a pound?

That is the highest price per pound sausage I have seen, and that includes Whole Foods, Gelson's Markets, Bristol Farms, Wegman's and Beverly Hills!

If I remember correctly from past stories (didn't watch the whole video), that place is only open on Saturdays. It's a business, not a backyard. Profit and overhead on a one day a week business would have to command top dollar to make it worth it. From what I've heard of the lines, seems like they have it figured out to some degree.

I would happily pay the price for something I saw the value in. If I didn't bbq but loved to eat it as one example. I have nearly zero patience and the line, not the price, would be what kept me away for certain.
