When it comes to choosing healthy, high-quality meats, bison is gaining serious ground—and for good reason. At True Grit Buffalo Ranch, we’re proud to raise grass-fed, hormone-free bison right here in Alberta. Not only is bison delicious and sustainable, but it also packs a serious nutritional punch—especially when it comes to protein.
Yes, it is!
A standard 3.5-ounce (100g) serving of cooked bison contains about 22 grams of protein, while a similar serving of beef averages around 19 grams. That may not sound like a big difference at first glance—but when you’re thinking about your overall nutrition, those extra grams of protein add up.
Whether you’re hitting the gym, managing your weight, or just looking to fuel your day with clean energy, every extra gram of protein helps.
Protein is essential for:
Building and repairing muscle
Keeping you full longer
Supporting your metabolism
Maintaining healthy skin, hair, and nails
And when that protein comes from a lean, natural source like bison, you’re getting those benefits without the added fat or cholesterol that often comes with other red meats.
Compared to beef, bison is naturally leaner, which means you’re getting more protein per calorie. It’s also lower in saturated fat and contains more omega-3 fatty acids, iron, and B vitamins. Plus, bison raised at True Grit Buffalo Ranch is:
100% grass-fed
Free of added hormones and antibiotics
Ethically and locally raised in Alberta
That means you can feel good about what’s on your plate—nutritionally, environmentally, and ethically.
Because bison is leaner than beef, it cooks faster. We recommend cooking it low and slow—or medium rare at most—to keep it juicy and tender. Whether it’s a bison burger, steak, or stew, a little care in the kitchen goes a long way.
