Buffalo meat has a rich, beef-like taste. Being lower in cholesterol and calories yet higher in iron and protein makes buffalo a perfect beef substitute for the health-conscious, or those on restricted red meat diets.

    Salt beef is nice however it is tricky to prepare, fresh meat is good however it should be hung for a few days to give chance for the flesh to soften.

    Buffalo meat is actually showing up in our stores here. I might have to give this one a try. A friend said to brine the meat (soak it in salt water) to give it extra tenderness. Have you ever heard of this? Do you recommend it?
