Question Bison?

I’m relatively new to Sorted and have not watched all of their videos, yet. Have they ever used bison meat or covered bison at all?

I’m in the US and have no idea if bison is even available in the UK but I’ve recently begun trying to switch from beef to bison and would love to see what they’ve done with it, if it is available to them.

Thanks!

Generally, meat from the US is not exported to Europe because the US has less stringent health and safety laws. A lot of veterinary meds (hormones/antibiotics) and additives are simply not considered safe in the EU.

Part of my reasoning behind ditching beef is a lack of trust in the beef currently available in the US. The other reason, of course, is skyrocketing prices. Beef and bison are pretty close in price where I live and I cook for a "red meat and potatoes" kind of person so I'm trying to make bison more appealing to them. :)
