One of the places I wished I could have spent more time at was the Crazy Horse Museum. I also loved the way the Bison seemed to "own" Yellowstone Natinal Park.

Don't know what the nutritional profile is, but the meat is leaner...made me think of 'grass-fed' texture...and the meat is excellent tasting!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310578943161768680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432175311042083431.post-48252469319051013932013-04-03T10:16:34.257-07:002013-04-03T10:16:34.257-07:00I heard that they're delicious and more nutrit...I heard that they're delicious and more nutritious and leaner than beef!Ariel Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12916654252322650486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432175311042083431.post-11378519798388317672013-04-03T09:53:50.012-07:002013-04-03T09:53:50.012-07:00I added Buffalo to my menu during the "Americ...I added Buffalo to my menu during the "American Cuisine" era of the late 70's...was awarded for my efforts by being named National Buffalo Assoc 'Restauratuer of the Year'. My supplier, Larry Butterfield, was one of the founding members of the National Buffalo Assoc. The American Bison is a majestic, mythic, awe-inspiring animal.
