Wild Idea Buffalo is unlike any other meat company. We began with a vision of actually improving the eco-system of the Great Plains. Our buffalo are raised on the wide open spaces of South Dakota where they eat only the native grasses beneath their feet. They spend their whole lives roaming freely on thousands of acres, and never see a feedlot or slaughterhouse. The result is better lives for the bison, the restoration of over 100,000 acres of the prairie, and sweet, delicious red meat that is actually good for you. Not such a wild idea after all!

What we have tried of our order has been quite good with the exception of the sausage. It had way too much fat and we did not find it at all tasty. Sadly I ended up throwing an unused portion of it away. The sausage was a waste of money. I would not recommend it. As for the other cuts, so far so good.

Great tasting meat but, the prime rib I received had the lip removed and all the fat was trimed off, that was not in the description.

I hate factory farms. The idea of eating meat from animals that live lives of suffering and fear had made me a vegetarian for years. Not only is this cruelty, it's also very unhealthy food to ingest. Health reasons caused me to transition back to meat. I have a deep respect and reverence for all life so if I'm going to eat meat, I want to eat meat from animals that live happy, healthy lives. Animals that graze on the grasses they are supposed to be eating and roaming around in the sun. I also don't really believe much of the heresy on food labels that say "organic" or "grass fed" as I am well aware of the wobbly standards in the food industry. Wild Idea is a company who believes in the values of healthy, happy, free roaming, sustainableI agriculture. They create their own standards based on these values which go far above beyond the industry standards for "certified organic". I was so impressed with their customer service, website, videos of the herd running in the pastures. They take great pride in what they do and it shows in every aspect of their company. the meat is expensive as it should be. It arrives very quickly and frozen. It tastes great and I can sleep at night knowing I'm supporting a true free roaming, sustainable way of farming

The Ribeye and Porterhouse steaks were superb as usual. The wonderful surprise was the meatloaf!! Seasoning was perfect with just enough heat to get one's attention. The texture and flavor; well please keep this product available!! Preparation instructions were spot on...a "Gold Star" winner 😎👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎

Ribs need to be braised till tender, like all buffalo. Excellent quality and taste, and the salami is one of the best I have ever had.

We've eaten Wild Idea Buffalo for years, great product, great story. If you order this Buffalo, anything else you try will pale to it's taste and flavor. While you are at it order Dan's book on his change over from a cattle operation to buffalo, it is an incredible story!
