1. Pick one or several of the recipes this gentle fellows have been working out
2. Prepare according to specifications
3. Hire me as beta-tester at any stage. Fee = 0$

But then again so is bison burgers. Yum!

But if you really want to make a special dish, the bison and fresh diced tomatoes, bell peppers, mushrooms, onions all cooked together. And then used like a sauce over egg noodles or white/brown rice is really good, topped with parmesan or cheddar cheese is a nice finishing touch, served with sourdough bread and butter. Yummy..

I am getting hungry now.. Dinner time is in a couple more hours

Bison meatloaf is really good. When I lived in Montana I ate a lot of bison because of all the hunting up there. First, take some diced baby carrots, onions & peppers and saute them in some olive oil with some herbs of your choosing. Then add that to the bison, along with an egg, worcesteshire sauce, breadcrumbs, and cranberries and bake at around 400 for about 45 minutes or so (until meatloaf is at 180 degrees). Delicious. The veggies in the meatloaf make it a little more moist--bison is less fatty than regular beef or pork so it can use a little moisturizing. The cranberries add a nice bit of sweet--hard to explain, but they work.

Enjoy!

Also, try the same with venison. If you have any bison left, I would definitely go for the chili.

It is just beef mince fried up with onions, carrot, peas then simmered in gravy and served with mashed tatties (potato).

Pretty basic fare but it would mean you would get the flavour of the bison.

If you really wanted to go for the authentic Scottish experience you could have neeps with it as well (boiled mashed turnip (swede) as the mashed tatties.

And a tip for bison meatloaf - try it with cornbread instead of just bread crumbs or crackers.

you'd need to use eggs, though.

Beef is closer to bison, thats why i said it.. :)

Then do salisbury steaks. or cottage pie.

I actually did a deer cottage pie a while back, with mushrooms in it instead of the usual peas and stuff. Was great.

I wish it wasn't ground :(

I'll definitely think up a rosemary, thyme, wild mushroom dinner though, that sounds good.

]]> http://www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/i-need-a-recipe-for-ground-bison#comment_806183 http://www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/i-need-a-recipe-for-ground-bison#comment_806183 Wed, 11 Feb 2009 16:20:55 -0600 csiunatc Actually, Bison Meatloaf is awesome.

Try to find some wild mushrooms. Chantarelles or something to put on top. And use tarragon, rosemary, thyme in a well ground spice mix.

It's really good.

Other than that, salisbury steaks. Or even a "Cottage pie" variety can be fantastic.

Any suggestions? I mean, I'm not going to make hamburger helper with it, if you know what I mean - so what am I to do with it?
