Answer 1

Do not eat buffalo. They are interesting and cool creatures. Sicko. Please don't eat buffalo. aren't cows enough? My sister eats buffalo and I yell at her. To each his own, but still. Those great creatures? Please leave them alone.

Answer 2

Buffalo is a tasty meat, the reason it is so lean and flavorful is because it is mostly muscle, unlike our friend the cow. Buffalo as said above must be cooked very carefully, and usually because of the lack of the fat, it is not as tender as beef. Everyone loves a great tasting steak, but texture plays a HUGE part.

If your looking for a healthier alternative to beef, try ostrich meat. It looks, tastes, and even smells like beef, and it has less fat, cholesterol, etc...

As for the Half Cow, half buffalo, they are called Beefalo's. They are excellent because they grow bigger than cows, and still retain some of the marbling that you get. The only problem is, that Beefalo's can not give birth, so the only way to do so is by breeding Cows and buffalo.

Just remember that the ammount of fat and marbling inside your meat determines the grade (Such as prime, Choice, and Select). Internal fat on beef is GOOD, External fat is good in small quantitys, but should be trimmed a bit to not retain as much fat.

I've had buffalo and it's very good! But it's a lot leaner than beef so you have to cook it carefully. If you make stew, for instance, you have to braise it a long time. This is why you most often see it as hamburger or ground 'beef'.

There is a famous restaurant in San Francisco named Tommy's Joynt. They have buffalo stew, it's been famous there for about 100 years. It's really GOOD!

There is also 'beefalo' which is half cow, half buffalo.

Answer 4

Bison Burgers are MUCH better for you, but they tend to be a touch dryer than beef - so if you're going to have one, then make sure to put on extra Ketchup or BBQ sauce ;);)

For most people who might look down on it - the taste really isn't THAT much different. Some might notice, and others won't have a clue...

YES I have had it when I went to California to visit my brother. I loved it and I think we should get rid of the cows and raise buffalo. I wouldn't want pay $6.00 lb. I think that is just way to high,however I would some times. I love buffalo Jerky it is the best!
It is all you said above.
