Also known as buffalo, bison is a leaner alternative to beef while being higher in protein but lower in fat, cholesterol, and calories. You don't need to worry about it being gamey, bison actually tends to be a bit more delicate (some would say sweeter) than beef. Its high concentration of iron gives it an earthy flavour as well. Raised in Alberta near Lacombe, AB, Canadian Rangeland's bison are free-roaming year-round. If you want to sink your teeth into a burger but you're also trying to eat leaner red meat, these bison burgers are a great addition to your next box. 

COOKING TIP: Just like their beef counterpart, these juicy burgers just need a little salt and pepper before they hit the bbq. Grill the burgers on medium heat for 6-7 minutes per side, or until an internal temperature is 140°F for medium rare, or 160°F for well done. Slide them between a buttered bun or opt for a lettuce wrap with all the fixings to keep things lean.
