No Hormones or Antibiotics

We believe that the food we eat should be natural and delicious. Our bison are treated with respect and allowed to grow at their own pace, without the need for antibiotics or hormones.

GET TO KNOW OUR BISON CUTS

Bison meat is lower in fat and higher in moisture than beef. This means bison will cook more quickly than beef.

 

Since bison has very little or no marbling, it is recommended not to cook steaks past medium.

There are bison cuts that can be cooked through, however, such as ground, stew, roasts, sausages, burger patties, etc.

Always remember:

  • use low cooking temperatures

  • cook slowly

  • cook less tender cuts until your fork goes in easily

  • do not cook steaks past medium (at the very most)
