Bison burgers for dinner!

They're very good. I get them at Central Market fairly regularly.

They're on the leaner side, so you have to be careful--they're very easy to overcook, which loses much of their flavor. A nice medium-rare, however, and they're terrific.

Made buffalo chili the other night, texture is about the same and I could not really taste a difference since it was in a chili. And as said before it is leaner so watch the cooking time, enjoy!

I like Bison burgers (as James said, you have to cook them medium rare), but I found the Bison steaks I have tried to be tough and gamey. For steaks, I'll take a good Texas steer, thanks.

OMGosh! An absolute score! Seasoned with a tad of Tony Chacheries, salt, and cayenne pepper. The interesting thing is that they were totally light. For instance, when I eat a beef burger of this size, I can barely finish it without feeling super-bloated. I plowed through one of these and felt I could eat 3 more! I think the lack of fat has something to do with that. These are awesome! Highly recommended!

soo good, it's blasphemy I know, but it's better than beef
