RECIPE: 100% Grassfed Bison Steak Perfection

Bison steaks are very similar to beef steaks, and can mostly be prepared in the same ways.  The one difference is that bison is quite a bit leaner than beef, so you’ll want to keep a close eye on time and temperature, to make sure not to overcook. One great method is to sear the meat on a hot grill first, then finish cooking it in the oven. Check out these cooking tips, below, for tender, juicy results!

Ingredients

• 1 package of bison steak, your choice
• Butter or oil
• Salt and pepper

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Pat the bison steak dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
3. Heat a skillet over medium high heat and add butter or your favorite oil.
4. When the oil/butter starts to sizzle, add your bison steak.
5. Sear for 2 minutes on each side then transfer to a pan in the oven.
6. Cook for about 4-7 minutes, depending on your cooking preference.  Check internal temperature with a meat thermometer, if you have one (see below for temperature guides).
   • Rare (120-125 °F)
   • Medium Rare (125-130 °F)
   • Medium (130-135 °F )
7. Let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes.
8. Enjoy!
