    When it comes to the taste of buffalo or bison, sometimes people are afraid that it might be dry. A lot of people ask us what does bison taste like, instead of trying it for themselves. It's true bison is a lean meat and lean beef is the opposite of Prime beef. So then what is lean meat, anyways? That's what we'll explain today. Just because bison may be lean, it doesn't mean that it's dry or without flavor. Be sure to use some of our tips and tricks and your next ground bison burger can be just as tender, juicy, and moist as your next hamburger. Same with bison steaks! The bison you see used today came straight from our own farm at Whitefeather Meats in Creston, Ohio. Be sure to stop by and visit us or check out www.whitefeathermeats.com. Be sure to stay locked in for the cooking demo, even in the snow, you know there will be meat sweats!

    I’m Sicangu Lakota from the Rosebud Sioux Reservation in South Dakota. It is told that the Tatanka Oyaté (Buffalo Nation) will come back and heal a nation. My father and grandparents told me stories about the Bison. We as Lakota people had no cancer or worried about obesity and diabetes. It’s a shame that the U.S. Government tried to kill off the Bison as a war tactic against the plains tribes, but I am very happy to see that Bison (Tatanka) is coming back. I am so proud to see your family help in bringing it to the American people and incorporating it to their diets. Keep up the great work fellas.

      The quickest way to save a critter, is to make it profitable to grow it.
      The fastest way to do that is to make people want to eat it or wear it.
      There are species of African animals that exist only because people imported some to Texas for hunting. Guiding someone on a hunt for a couple a year is profitable enough to manage a healthy herd.

    I couldnt agree more, Bison just wins. My dad owned the largest heard of bison in the NW when I was growing up in the 90's, he eventually sold the herd but having a front yard filled with three hundred plus American bison as a kid was pretty special and not something many can relate to. There wasn't a part of those bison that didn't get used when they were slaughtered. Full mounts, robes, meat, skulls, and even the hooves were turned into ash trays.

He built a shop and property with our help, his vision, to provide a legacy and means for us to build upon/pass along that resource to future generations. Dad’s passing has brought our family even closer than we were before. I deeply love my brother (10 years my junior) and feel a kinship with you guys, seeing you carry on your dad’s legacy.

Unable to hunt any longer and my husband passed away 40 years ago so as close as I come to the taste of venison is bison..which I even find sometimes in walmart..wish I was there..looks yummy.

    First off, let me say how Awesome your videos are and how much I enjoy them, TOP NOTCH! Secondly, I really want to commend you on the tutorial value. You take a viewer completely clueless of the cuts and its origins and transform them to an educated consumer. Lastly, as a Customer you take us to a higher place where your add in narrative on cut comparisons that allow us to make more informed decisions as to cut, quality, and even species. By far the best videos out there. Keep up the great work! We are watching!!

Really friendly employees. Brought a cooler which I loaded full lol! Great part about it is it is near some great Amish areas in Ohio too. Found some wonderful farms in the area that sell all manner of food and other items to the general public. Even picked up a fresh goose for Christmas dinner!

    Thought you guys might be interested in this. In Maine, about half way up the coast, the Union River enters the ocean. If you follow that river up probably 30 miles somewhere around Alligator Lake is a huge pile of bison hair. The north Maine woods had huge Hemlock. The bark was stripped from the trees, bundled and floated down streams to where there was a tannery in the middle of no where in the Maine woods. The hides were brought up river, stripped of hair and tanned using the hemlock then shipped back down river. To this day there is still nothing but woods and logging roads since the last river log drive was in the late 1970's they put in a road system. I would imagine they were shipped to Europe.
