Vegan firefighter hoses down burning tractor-trailer carrying 40,000 pounds of ribeye steaks: 'Total loss'

A probationary firefighter at a rural fire department in Missouri had a unique experience when responding to her first fire on Monday.

The Doolittle Rural Fire Protection District, located in the very small town of Doolittle, said it has one vegan, and that happens to be Jenna Ulrich – a new firefighter whose father is also a firefighter.

Ulrich was working on Monday morning when the department received a call reporting a tractor-trailer on fire on Interstate 174 eastbound.

The catch? The truck was carrying 40,000 pounds of ribeye steaks.

Ulrich was stationed on the hose line during the ordeal and can be seen spraying water on the beefed-up inferno in the video posted online by the department.

Her dad, Glenn, was working alongside her.

"Nothing says ‘welcome to the fire service’ like sending the probie to put out 40,000 pounds of flaming ribeye!" the district joked on Facebook.
