Beefalo Teriyaki Steak


Don’t expect to find packages of beefalo on supermarket shelves any time soon, but this hybrid cross of a domestic beef cow and a bison delivers beefy taste in a low-fat, low-cholesterol package. “The cross appeals to those who yearn for a taste of the old West and those who want the advantages [of beefalo] from a health standpoint,” said Eldon Cole, livestock specialist at the University of Missouri Extension.
