Win eight 1/4 lb. Bison Patties



1/4 lb. Bison Patties




Bison is the new beef and it is great for those watching their cholesterol or fat intake. I bought some for my mom's birthday and didn't tell anyone that it wasn't hamburger, they were surprised after I told them it was buffalo.  Below is what people at Buffalo Gal advised if you are going to cook bison burgers:


Suggested Cooking Tips:
Bison burger is lean (ranging from 93-96% lean) so when grilling or pan frying the burger - place it on medium heat - COVER. Allow the burger to do its cooking on one side. Don't poke, smash or continually flip the burger because you want to maintain all of the moisture and fat in the meat. When burger appears mostly cooked - flip one time and in 30-45 seconds it should be ready to serve. You might find that using a meat thermometer is helpful when first cooking the burger. It should reach 160 degrees internal temp.

 Nutrition (3.5 oz.):
Fat: 2g, Sat. Fat: .5g, Calories: 110, Calories from Fat: 15, Carbs: 0g, Protein: 22g, Cholesterol: 60mg, Sodium: 55mg\

 I will be giving a one 8 (3.5 oz) bison burgers to two lucky winners and GLTA.

    I love bison - haven't eaten it for a while , due to cost retraints however. My grandmother was Osage Indian and would cook it up for special feasts, etc.

    I had it checked about a year ago --- it was good enough that my doctor didn't want to recheck it this year.
