Buffalo meat: Is it worth it-

Buffalo meat- it isn't worth it.

I bought buffalo tonight. Publix here in south Florida had it in a plastic package. Amy foods, of Houston, Texas produced this meat. 13 ounces/336 grams yielded 4 hamburgers.

I grilled them the same way that I would grill any beef burger, with HIGH heat. They grilled up significantly longer than beef. After about 10 minutes, I was still staring at them...and I hadn't even flipped them over. Beef needs about 5 minutes at the grills' highest temperature per side. These needed more-

WELL, at the 10 minute point I cut them with a Knife and saw that they were now pink in the middle. I procured plates, knifes, and spatulas....and put the buffalo burgers on the plate.

They DO taste slightly different, but the difference in taste between beef and these is about 1/3 the difference in taste between lamb and beef.

Lets have buffalo tonight! Sounds kind of strange~

The nutritional information on the package stated that the buffalo was way fattier than typical bovine. We typically don't eat cow anyway, since my family has a history of high cholesterol But we tried it anyway. I can make up for it with salmon this week anyway.

EXPENSIVE! over $7 for 13 ounces of Buffalo, and this was at the local cheap grocer Publix. They have it at Whole Foods for far more than that, but we aren't interested.

N!
