Notes

Difference between bison and beef Bison and beef look similar in the grocery stores but here are some of the differences between the two. Ground bison comes from an American bison while ground beef comes from a cattle cow. Bison isn't as widely available as ground beef and is usually more expensive. This is because there is a smaller population of bison and they have more specialized methods required for raising them. Bison is leaner with less fat than ground beef Is bison healthier than beef? Bison is considered a healthier alternative to beef and here's why. Bison has less total fat, saturated fat, and calories per serving compared to beef. This can make it a great option for individuals looking to reduce their fat intake or manage their calorie consumption. Bison is also higher in protein than beef. Bison has more vitamins and iron compared to beef. Bison are typically raised without the use of hormones or antibiotics, which can be commonly used in conventional beef production. Store your leftover taco meat in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. You can reheat your taco meat in the microwave or you can reheat it on the stove. To reheat it on the stove, add your meat to a skillet, add a little water or beef broth, and heat on medium heat until warm.
