Last night I decided to try something new in my kitchen?.Ground Buffalo.

After reading more into The Eat-Clean Diet, I realized that I do a pretty good job with selecting food that are ?clean?. There are a few foods that I want to substitute with. This was one of the easier food swaps that I made. I had seen ground buffalo at Whole Foods but always passed it by for its neighbor beef. After reading the health benefits of buffalo, I decided that this will be a reoccurring product in my kitchen.

What are the health benefits of Ground Buffalo (aka Bison) you may ask?

Benefits of Buffalo Meat when compared to Beef: Buffalo has 70% to 90% less fat (depending upon the cut of the meat.) Buffalo has an average if 50% less cholesterol than beef. Buffalo is 30% higher in protein and has less calories than beef. Our Buffalo has no growth-inducing hormones or steroids. Buffalo Meat has No known human allergens. Buffalo Meat is Higher in Iron than beef - (great for Women). There are no Problems with E-Coli in Buffalo Meat

So for my first Buffalo Meat adventure I decided to be lame and just do burgers. I was rushed on time and wanted to have a great tasting meal that the whole family could enjoy.

IMG_1277 I decided to use simple spices to season the burgers. I really wanted to taste the meat. I used my favorite spices from Purcell Mountain Farms: Organic Onion and garlic with a little fresh ground salt and pepper.

I mixed everything together and formed my patties.

IMG_1279 I cheated with the grill. The weather was less than perfect yesterday so I decided to get the Forman Out. It is a great substitute for these types of situations.

While the burgers were ?grilling? I made a Build Your Own Burger Bar. The nights specialty item was Country Bob?s All Purpose Sauce. If you have never tried this sauce you are missing out. It is all natural and adds a nice tang to your burger.

Buffalo Madness! If the screen was scratch and sniff you would be in burger bliss!

My BYOB?Lettuce, Tomato, Sauce, Pickles, Arnold?s Sandwich Thin, Alexia Potatoes, and Broccoli.

I loved the taste of the Buffalo. I was expecting a gaming flavor but it was a mild tasting ground beef. It was extremely flavorful and I loved what I paired with it. I will definitely use it again. I am thinking of all the possibilities :)

I was feeling like a sparkling beverage to accompany this fantastic meal. I was lucky enough to get some POM Blogger love.

I mixed my POM with Whole Foods Mint Sparkling Mineral Water. YUM!

Anyone in NYC want to send me some coffee POM love? They don?t have it yet in CT!!!!!
