Bison is a truly North American meat with great taste and also has a nutritional profile that fits in perfectly with today's trend for a healthier, more natural diet. Canadian bison are raised without the use of growth stimulants, antibiotics, or animal by-products. They spend the majority of their life grazing on forage - some producers finish their bison on grass while others finish on grains.

Ground Bison
Burger Quicktip:
Ground Bison may be used as a substitute for any recipe calling for ground beef. However, ground bison is much leaner than ground beef therefore it will cook faster. Ground bison should always be cooked until no pink remains at an internal temperature of 70°C (160°F).
