A tractor trailer carrying more than 40,000 pounds of ribeye steak went up in flames on the side of the highway after the vehicle caught fire early Monday morning.

The post said the burning semi filled with steak was Probationary Firefighter Jenna Ulrich's first fire. She is the only vegan in the department.

People in Missouri may have noticed the scent of delicious steak for miles around the state. Or there was a burnt odor hanging in the air as 40,000 lbs of steak went up in flames. This is because a semi-truck carrying a load of meat suddenly went up in flames.
