Tell me about the Buffalo at Artists Point

[LisaInNc]

I am going to be dining at Artists Point on my upcoming trip and I have seen so many people talk about how good the buffalo is. I am a picky eater that is desperately trying to branch out a bit. I am intrigued and wanting to know more about what it tastes like.

I am a texture based eater and I like my meats to be soft. The only steak I will eat is filet mignon. How does the buffalo compare to that in texture?

How would you describe it's taste?

Many thanks!

I am going to get to try a lot of new things during the food and wine festival and I am excited about that.

I can't tell you about the Buffalo at AP, but DH had a buffalo burger or steak somewhere and it didn't taste much different than regular hamburger or steak. Actually I thought it was much better than a regular steak. Now, he has his cooked until it is like shoe leather, but it was still fairly tender. I prefer my steak medium rare to medium, so if it has been cooked to my specifications, it would have melted in your mouth.

Its really tender (at least when I had it) and I definitely think you should give it a try... It doesn't taste much different than a steak

Thanks I think that I am going to give it a try!

I'm going to be technical here but it's actually "bison" and not buffalo. America is not home to any kind of buffalo although we still call them that.

Bison meat is very similar to that of cattle. But bison is lower in fat and cholesterol. If you ever fry up a bison burger, you will have little to no grease in the pan.

Might techinically be bison - but AP calls it Buffalo on their menu so that's what I'll be calling it. I thought the buffalo steak was very good - I've had it at AP and at Cali Grill. I did feel it was a little more tender than beef steak

Its important not to get the buffalo cooked any more than medium rare. Its quite a tasty meat. Those that want well done meat should stay away from this since it winds up being tough and definitely not as tasty.

My DH loves the buffalo at Artist Point. He's had it many times and has always had a lovely, tender piece of meat.

Hi,
My husband had buffalo for the first time ever just a few weeks ago at Artist Pointe. You need to order it medium rare or pinker and it will be very tender. He is also a big filet eater and thought texture wise it was just like a fielt.

I like well done meat and I always order the buffalo medium well. I don't find it tough or dry. That's one of the reasons I like buffalo
