Although "a pound" is a monetary unit in England (1 pound sterling), in the US a "pound" is a measurement of weight. Candy is referring to a very large, heavy steak, and not a very expensive steak.
When Candy mentions a "30-pound all-beef steak", she is referring first to the weight, and then to the composition of a steak (a cut of beef). In English, we often use compound adjectives to describe something in detail, particularly when indicating a quantifiable figure or number. Specifically, this steak weighs 30 pounds ("pounds" are a unit of weight measurement in the US: 1 pound = 0.45 kg) and is made of 100% pure beef (without other additives or meat).
Candy is referring to a cut of meat, and not a weather pattern.
Candy is referring to a very large cut of meat, and not a not a prize-winning or award-winning steak.
