CARE AND STORAGE
The care and storage of Bison meat is very much like beef. How long
it was aged and how it is packaged will effect the storage life of a
product.
REFRIGERATION
Store in the coldest part of the refrigerator, steaks and roasts unopened
up to four days; ground Bison, no more than two days.
FREEZING
To keep Bison as fresh as possible, wrap and seal it tightly in moisture/vapor-proof
material, such as freezer paper, aluminum foil and polyethylene films.
Label packages, noting the date, cut and weight or number of servings.
You can store ground Bison and cooked Bison as long as three months;
other fresh Bison up to 12 months.
DEFROSTING
Several methods may be used to defrost Bison. The best method is to
defrost in the refrigerator in its original wrapping. A second method
is to defrost during cooking. However, you should allow one-third to
one-half more cooking time, depending on the size of the meat cut. A
third way is the use of the microwave oven. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's
directions. We have Quality Cuts of American Bison, Choice Steaks, Roasts,
Burgers, Patties, Stew Meat, Short Ribs, and Jerky. We guarantee all
of our products to your satisfaction. We will replace your order or
refund your money, your preference.
BISON COOKING TIPS
The lower content of fat insures that Bison meat will cook faster. Since
fat acts as an insulator - heat must first penetrate this insulation
layer before the cooking process of the protein begins.
