You really can’t go wrong with a juicy buffalo strip steak. These steaks have a luscious fat-cap on one side, making them super flavorful. This tender cut comes from the same primal as filet mignon.

Our bison New York strip steaks require no more adornment than a little salt and pepper. Dad will relish the experience of searing these babies up, rare to medium-rare as a rule for cooking bison.

Our wild boars roam truly wild and free. They forage their natural diet of nuts, berries, roots and tubers which gives their meat a nutty and delicious flavor. These animals are humanely trapped and travel to our facility under the supervision of highly specialized veterinarians to ensure that they experience as little stress as possible.
The most choice cut of the entire boar, this lush tenderloin will be sure to delight. Take care not to overcook this naturally lean meat. Simply season with salt and pepper and pan sear at high heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 140-145 degrees.

The fragrant and juicy magic of our elk medallions shines with an uncomplicated preparation. Sea salt and fresh ground pepper are all you need, typical of our top-shelf cuts.

4. Bison Tenderloin
Also known as filet mignon - you had to be expecting this one to be in our top five. Known as the queen of steaks, this sumptuous cut will be sure to make your dad feel like a king. When you buy steaks online from us, if these filets are in stock be sure to grab them up because they sell out very quickly. Our loyal fans buy them regularly and they are a true delicacy - this bison is such high quality that it can be eaten tartare (raw). These filets should always be cooked rare to medium rare. Anything higher than that would be a disservice to this incredible meat.
