Two weeks ago I covered buffalo milk, now onto the fat. Sometimes grass-fed meats can be very lean. Where is all the fat-soluble vitamins (A and D) then? Wellness meats now sales bison fat. One pound costs $6.95 and you can render your own into tallow (tallow because it comes from a remnant). I like the idea of buffalo tallow, because buffalo spend their lives on grass, in addition to not being given drugs, chemicals or hormones. Besides getting your fat-soluble vitamins, you will also see:
- it has more CLA
- it has more iron
- less calories
- more B12
- and more essential fatty acids
If you know a buffalo farmer have at it. If not I recommend Wellness Meats, I’ve ordered from them before and I cannot rave enough about them.
