Any Bison Burgers Being Served at Tailgates on Saturday?

I make a pretty good bison short rib. Balsamic vinegar and blackberry jam.

Pics? How did you cook them? I did some in a Dutch oven recently, marinated and cooked in zinfandel. Delicious, but even better tasting on day 2.

Will probably be some Bison being roasted on spits for tailgates this weekend, no?


Oh goodness gracious, that looks amazing. I'd imagine a whole bison is fairly hard to get a hold of on short notice, not to mention the amount of space needed for a spit set up of that size. However, that would be a phenomenal/epic tailgate if someone managed to pull it off.

Brown the ribs on all sides, add carrot, celery, onion, garlic cloves, and peppercorns. Deglaze the pan with a dry red wine and an inexpensive balsamic vinegar. Cover with beef stock (if you don't make it yourself, use half beef broth and half water as store-bought broth is too salty) and braise for 4-5 hours.
Remove the ribs and strain the cooking liquid. Put some of the liquid back on the ribs, cover and keep warm. Reduce the remaining cooking liquid. Add a little tomato paste, Worcestershire, blackberry jam, and a little balsamic to taste. Salt and pepper at the end. Pour over ribs.
Great with fennel mashed potatoes or mushroom risotto.

Alas, I will be working all day this Saturday so I won't be able to cook the short ribs.

yes. Should have one of these set up at the Lot that NDST is renting for the game. Would be a great welcome for them.
 
The Iowa football team will be serving Bison Burgers.....After the game! :D
