Hey buffalo is great. Way less fat, sodium and cholesterol and way more protein and all the other good natural stuff like creatine from red meat. I loive near a buffalo farm so I get it often just when your cooking it keep turning it like every 1- 1.5 mins cooks quick too

Allie - it tastes almost identical to beef, it's a much more leaner animal, contains omega 3's, and the list goes on:

Important differences when compared to beef include:

70% to 90% less fat (depending upon the cut of the meat.)
An average if 50% less cholesterol.
30% higher in protein and less calories.
No growth-inducing hormones or steroids.
No known human allergies.
Higher in Iron (great for Women)

i should try buffalo. How does it compare to beef pricewise?

[Your name here]

5.00 a lb seems to be about the norm. That is for ground bison.

[Saint Patrick]

Bison and Buffalo are the same thing FYI

[GoldenBoy]

steep prices...

I was told buffalo will only graze on the range. Will not eat what you give them. Know what I mean? Also been told they have little disease. I had it once in a burger good, like beef. Where I am at don't know if you can buy it. Never looked. Maybe frozen.
