    I’m a sausage pizza girl, but I imagine this bison would be wonderful.

      I had a bunch of fresh herbs on hand that I tossed in there… oregano, sage, and tarragon is what I used!

      A lot of large grocery stores sell it these days! Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Central Market, online… it’s pretty accessible luckily.

    Looks great… but Did you use raw bison? Was IT actually cooked through By the End?
