Tips for Cooking Buffalo Meat

*Thaw buffalo meat naturally.  Microwaves tend to toughen meat.

*Remember to cook buffalo meat "Low and Slow."  Buffalo meat will cook quickly because there is so little fat.  Compared to beef, buffalo cooks at a lower temperature but will get done in about the same amount of time.

*When grilling buffalo steaks or buffalo burgers, lay a sheet of foil down on the grill to prevent sticking.  This will allow the juices to remain near the meat.  Remember to grill at a lower heat.
