Bison burgers vs Beef burgers

Which makes for the ultimate burger?

Short answer?

This is especially true if you’re comparing pasture-raised bison ✔️ vs. the factory-farmed beef you’ll find in the meat department of most stores ❌.

Bison meat is:

And not only that-

There’s another characteristic of bison meat that’s especially unique.

It’s not very widely known, so we’ll let you in on the secret.

Ready?

It’s that when you cook bison meat, it doesn’t shrink like most other kinds.

All meat will shrink in size and weight during cooking.

The amount of shrinkage will depend on its fat and moisture content, the temperature at which the meat is cooked, and how long it is cooked.

Although bison meat is leaner than beef, it’s also naturally more tender and flavorful.

It’s best cooked to rare, medium-rare, or medium at the most.

You’ll end up with a juicier, more tender, and better-tasting burger — not to mention, it’ll be bigger than if you had used ground beef.

Bison burgers save money and are more satiating!

I’ve been to barbecues where the meat almost shrinks in half.

This doesn’t happen when you cook bison meat.

No matter which cut you’re cooking.

Now, these points we’ve covered all apply when you’re comparing our bison meat to factory farmed beef.

Then it’s a tough match.

Our American Wagyu beef combines the beefy flavor of Angus with the highly marbled and tender meat that the Wagyu breed is known for.

This makes our beef of the best choices for burgers — besides bison, of course.

And then there’s the signature Beck & Bulow Burger — bison mixed with wild boar bacon. My mouth is watering just thinking about this team favorite.

So it really comes down to personal taste.

Which way, burger lover?

Choose greener, healthier options that are unparalleled in flavor.

Meat that’s good for the earth, good for the animals, and GREAT for you.
