Steak – a traditional favourite for North Americans. Who can resist the wonderful smells of weekend BBQs wafting through the air. But today’s trend is towards health conscious food choices, and beef and pork with their high cholesterol content are off the menu for many.

Thankfully there is a healthy alternative, and it’s bison meat.

Buffalo has much less cholesterol than beef while keeping the taste that red meat eaters love. That’s why bison is gaining in popularity. Within the past 10 years, it’s found it’s way into restaurants and increasingly enjoyed by home chefs. Northfork supplies bison meat online, and we have superb cuts of steak.

Northfork Bison’s Canadian bison contains no growth hormones and no antibiotics or steroids. There are no additives or fillers used. NO artificial ingredients of any kind ever.

This article will provide you with some recipe ideas for steaks and information on the correct temperatures to use when cooking and barbecuing.
