When people think of gift giving for the holidays they don’t always think of giving the gift of food. I’m not talking about baked goods. Let’s face it, the holidays wouldn’t be the same without homemade cookies, cakes and pies. By food I’m referring to something you could make for dinner, like steak meats.
A few months ago I did a review for High Plains Bison. Their steaks, hot dogs, burgers and sausages are really made from real Bison meat. You can check out my review here, https://www.shescribes.com/2010/09/have-you-ever-eaten-bison.html.
Did you know that the American Buffalo is really a Bison, not a Buffalo? Its a commonly made mistake that I find to be very interesting.
When I was younger and lived at home with my parents there used to be a place that sold Buffalo Burgers not too far away (actually they were Bison Burgers if you want to be technical). I used to pass by the farm on the way to where I did my internship for college. Back then the idea of eating Bison meat sounded pretty gross. I’m not a fan of Venison meat so I assumed the Bison would have that same “gamey” taste to it.
A few months ago I finally tried Bison meat from High Plains Bison. WOW! My assumptions were way off. Bison meat doesn’t taste “gamey” at all. In fact it tastes exactly like steak you get from a cow. My husband, who is overly picky about foods, didn’t know it wasn’t steak until I told him it was Bison meat. He thought it tasted great. It cooks just as well as regular cow steaks too. You do not need to prepare it differently.
Bison meat has a rich and flavorful taste and makes for a very hearty meal. Because of the dense proportion of protein, fat, mineral and fatty acids to caloric value it makes Bison meat one of the more nutrient-dense meats available today.
High Plains Bison meat made without additives, preservatives, fillers, hormones or artificial anything.
Did you know that Bison is actually a healthier option for you? It is naturally lean and lower in saturated fat than beef, chicken, pork, or even salmon. It is also low in cholesterol, low in sodium and a great source of iron. Bison meat contains a healthy does of Omega-3 fatty acids which are essential for optimum health.

Bison would also make for a great holiday meal. Bison roasts come in a range of cuts from $19.99 to $89 to serve any size group. You could even consider sausages, burger or hot dogs all made from Bison meat for less formal gatherings.
Originally I was very concerned about eating the Bison meat. When I think Bison (or American Buffalo) I think about a creature that is endangered of becoming extinct. I don’t think there are any wild Bison anymore. I’m assuming they only ones left are on farms.
High Plains Bison is committed to sustainability. American Bison herds are thriving once again thanks to foresight, respect and responsible husbandry, as well as a genuine desire to foster the survival of the species. So when you enjoy High Plains Bison, native grasslands are preserved, natural ecosystems flourish and herds thrive.
This year when you are at a loss as to what kind of gift to get someone on your shopping list who loves food (foodie) and loves to cook, why not consider a gift of High Plains Bison meat products. Or consider a change of pace from Turkey and Ham and serve up a Bison roast for your holiday dinner parties. Your guests will welcome the unique change in the menu.
