      Is bison meat better for me than beef?

      Bison is a leaner protein than beef and may be a healthier choice if you’re looking to maximize your nutritional benefit while reducing your calorie or fat intake. Bison is a great choice for Keto-friendly diets—it has nearly 25% fewer calories than beef and is lower in total and saturated fat. Both are good sources of iron, zinc phosphorus, niacin, selenium, and vitamins B6 and B12, although bison is higher in iron and Omega 3s.

      Where are your bison raised?

      Our bison are grown and raised by Canadian producers on over 9,000 acres of native grasslands in Western Canada. We have two ranches in Saskatchewan and one in Manitoba that are owned and managed by our producer/partner Doug Griller, a third-generation rancher. When required, we also work with select producers in Western Canada that manage/govern their operations under the same guidelines and attention to environmental practices as Noble.

      What does bison meat taste like?

      We think it tastes great! Bison meat is slightly richer and sweeter than beef and has a smoother mouthfeel, or texture, because of the leanness. Bison and beef have a similar enough flavour that it doesn’t take an adventurous palate to give it a try. In fact, depending on the recipe, it might be difficult to taste the difference. You can substitute bison in most recipes that call for ground beef, chicken or turkey.

      Where can I buy bison products?

      To the hospitality industry, Noble Premium Bison is available through wholesalers. For consumers who want to enjoy fresh bison meat at home, you can buy Noble Premium Bison products right across Canada! Look for our Extra Lean Ground Bison at Costco, and our Bison Steaks, Steak Cubes and Lean Ground at the fresh meat counter at Sobeys. In Western Canada all our products are at Federated Co-op, Calgary Co-op, Safeway, Thrifty Foods and select IGA stores. See our Retail Stores in Canada page to find a store near you. You can also order online from Best of Calgary Foods if you live in Calgary and surrounding area.

      Are your bison given antibiotics or hormones?

      Regulations and industry standards in Canada don’t allow the use of growth hormones in bison. If we do have to administer regulation-approved antibiotics to one of our bison for health reasons, that animal is removed from our hospitality and retail program. This helps us to maintain the integrity of all our products. As well, our bison meat contains no additives which means you enjoy 100% pure protein.
