today was my first taste of bison aka buffalo

i have always wanted to try it and my ole man went and found us some

at the new harris teeter grocery store near our house. it was 8.99 per pound

the meat was alittle darker and it was really good

we cooked it on the grill (like i would a beef patty)

i say it is something i would enjoy again

and cant wait to make baby meat loaves with it and chili and beef (bison) stew

anyhow, thought i'd share

Had a buffalo burger in Cody Wyoming.. it's really good .. also Elk Meat is better than beef IMO..

Venison is really good if cooked and cleaned right... when we were in Colorado the folks at the ranch raise grass fed beef and it was heaven.. so lean and tender as butter..

I've had a bison burger and if you like red meat it has a great flavor!

here be my bison
