\"Grilled

My little sister, Karen, (who happens to be the creative designer behind this site and chief photographer) likes to try new, healthy dishes.\u00a0 She’s always trying things that sound absolutely disgusting to me.\u00a0 A couple of years ago I’m smoking ribs for my dad’s birthday and she brings over a Bison Steak for me to grill for her.<\/p>\n

Huh?\u00a0 You don’t want ribs – you want a BISON STEAK?\u00a0 I found that beyond ridiculous.\u00a0 Nevertheless, I fired up my grill, JUST for Karen, JUST for her silly Bison Steak, JUST so she could try something healthy.\u00a0 So annoying.<\/p>\n

The results stunned me.<\/p>\n

Absolutely sweet and delicious and in my opinion, BETTER than beef steaks.\u00a0 Dangit – I HATE when my little sister is right.\u00a0 We’ve tried a few more times since then and have come up with a couple of killer recipes you will love.<\/p>\n

Put all the ingredients together in a Ziploc bag or container and let your Bison steak marinate for at least 30 minutes, but up to 6 hours.\u00a0 The longer you marinate, the more the flavors will seep in.\u00a0 But be careful – this steak is pretty darn good by itself, so you don’t want to overpower with too much flavor.\u00a0 I marinated mine for about 90 minutes.<\/p>\n

Set up your grill for indirect cooking and get your grill blazing hot.\u00a0 I used Kingsford Competition Briquettes, which produce a MUCH hotter fire than standard briquettes.\u00a0 With only about 25 coals<\/a>, all pushed to one side, I was able to get my grill temp to 450+ degrees.<\/p>\n

Remove the steak from the marinade, place on a tray and add some salt & pepper to taste.\u00a0 Grab 2 beers and head outside.<\/p>\n

Place the steak directly above the blazing hot coals and sear for about 3-5 minutes per side, depending on thickness.<\/p>\n

\"Bison

Now move it as far away from heat as possible, close lid and all vents and let cook until internal temperature is between 130-140 for medium doneness.<\/div>\n
You really want to eat Bison no more than medium.\u00a0 Trust me.\u00a0 I let mine cook like this for about 5 minutes and it was perfect.<\/div>\n

You just cannot believe how good it is!\u00a0 And bison is so lean it makes for a relatively healthy meal.\u00a0 Win – win.\u00a0 Leave a comment or email me and let me know how it goes!<\/p>\n
