Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for January 11, 2018

Anybody here ever had it? How does it taste?

It is a bit bland. Add relish.

They have bison in our local store. I like bison jerky.

I love it! Must be than I’m half Native American. Good for you, too.

You have animal flesh to grill, of course there shall be feasting!

When my daughter was little, bison was by far her favorite meat.The only “catch” is that it has so little fat, you can’t just cook it like beef, or it’s liable to end up dry. Bison burgers are awesome baked at 400 (medium) or 450 (medium-rare).

Ah something Janis had not thought of, he got creative at the store….

Bison is a cloven-hoofed ruminant. So whatever else it is, it qualifies as kosher/hallal, depending on method of slaughter.

There’s a lot to be said for being a vegetarian.

And at only $13.50 a pound. Give me a ribeye

Meh. I’d rather have lamb.

I love Janis’ comment. Akin to “Be still my beating heart!”

Rudy likes tuna….

I love bison steak. Its not fatty like cow and a cleaner taste.

Years ago, I was a member of the National Bison Association. When Bison herds were few. We nutruted and expanded herds as an alternative to cattle. Every year I would get my NBA letters and the postman always wanted to meet me. Turns out, he thought this was the other NBA, and I was a retired ball player. At 5’6" this was highly unlikely. On the Bison front, it is leaner, healthier for you, and Ground Bison or Steaks, both are extremely satisfying and delicious. It does have less marbeling, and as others have pointed out, cooking is a bit different, but I have never been disappointed in it.

Red meat. Rich people. If we have red meat it is at Wendys – a junior burger.
