And although the price per pound has gone up too, Jamie's still making a loss on it.
Tyson, one of the big four meatpackers, has told its own investors much the same story.
It lost more than $500 million on beef across the first half of its financial year.
And with meatpackers and processors chasing fewer and fewer cows, Jamie says business is tough.
The chain doesn't end on a shelf.
It ends on a griddle.
Paul Urban owns Block 16, a burger restaurant in Omaha, Nebraska, and they didn't set out to sell burgers at all.
He's in cattle country.
People here absolutely love their beef.
He goes through about 300 pounds of ground beef a week.
That's around 2,800 burgers a month.
And every one of them starts with what he pays for the meat.
When Block 16 opened, Paul sold his burgers for $8.95.
Today, the price has increased to $11.95, and he says even with a $3 increase, it isn't enough to make a decent living.
He absorbs at least some of the difference and takes a thinner margin to keep prices down and customers coming back.
5%.

He once cut his patties with mushroom.
40% mushroom, 60% beef.
