Bison Meat

My experience with bison is it takes less cooking time than beef, due in part to the leanness, but also in part to the animal..

I had a bison tri-tip from Whole Foods, and the butcher told me that smoking/roasting it took 30-60 minutes less than the similar cut of beef. I followed his advice and turned out a beautiful smoked tri-tip. No pics, because I wasn't thinking.

Methinks the 4 hour salting (I don't do that to any piece of meat I'm cooking, unless it's a butt/shoulder/brisket) and cooking it "too long" killed it.

If you're feeling frisky, get another ribeye from them, but ask the butcher for advice.
