Beef is so versatile, don’t you think? Not just culinarily—where you can grill it, sear it, chicken fry it, corn it, and ultimately eat it—but in terms of its many metaphorical meanings.

What’s beef? Biggie can tell you.

Where’s the beef? Wendy’s wants to know.

Who beefed? We all smell something a little funky.

We’ve got a lot of questions about beef, but the most important one is—what do you have to say about it?
