Savor the Past with the Make Brisket 1.97/Lb Again Shirt
Jim Verdi, a Texas-based pitmaster and social media personality, donned this shirt in a May 2025 YouTube video, lamenting the soaring cost of brisket -a staple of Texas BBQ culture. The “$1.97/Lb” harks back to the 1990s, when brisket prices hovered around that mark, a nod to his campaign for affordable meat amid 2025 inflation hitting $8-$10/Lb, as noted by BBQ forums. Framed like a political slogan, it’s a playful yet poignant call to restore those golden days, appealing to fans who share his love for smoky traditions. Wear it to a BBQ competition, a watch party, or while firing up the smoker, joining Verdi in a flavorful stand against rising costs.

The design features “MAKE BRISKET $1.97/LB AGAIN” in bold white text with star accents, set against the black fabric, creating a striking, retro-political vibe that smokes with nostalgia.
