Sonny’s Bar-B-Q on Fourth Street has a storied history in Graham, and owner Shane Bivins willbe the first to say that since reopening his restaurant for the second time this June, business hasn’t met his expectations. Now, thanks to another recent surge in beef prices, he said he remains uncertain about Sonny’s future. “In two weeks, the beef prices went up 50 cents,” Bivins said. “They went from $2.48 to $2.98 in two week’s time.
