- Buffalo vs. Beef: Which Protein is Better? - Thomas DeLauer… What is grass-fed beef v grain-fed beef? The way cows are fed can have a major effect on the nutrient composition of the beef that we consume. Fatty Acid Comparison: Grass-fed vs Grain-fed-
What a cow eats can have a major effect on the nutrient composition of the beef.
This is particularly evident when it comes to the fatty acid composition. Grass-fed beef tends to be much leaner than grain-fed beef, and as a result, lower in total fat. However, grass-fed beef can have 2-6x more “good” fats in the form of omega 3’s.

Major Cons of Grain-fed:
-Higher Incidence of Bacteria Growth. Conventionally” raised cows carry a greater risk of spreading E. coli infection to humans due to the higher incidence of harmful bacteria growth in grain-fed animals, and fecal contamination in feedlots and on kill floors. “Conventionally” raised meats contain residues of everything the animal was exposed to, which includes veterinary drugs, heavy metal residues, and pesticides from their grain-based diet.
Buffalo Meat:
Regulations and industry standards don’t allow the use of hormones or routine antibiotics, which are often given as growth promoters to cattle. According to the USDA, “antibiotics and growth hormones are not given to buffalo, they are allowed to roam freely most of their lives and are raised on the open range and eat hay or grass.” This means that any buffalo meat you eat won't be laced with growth hormones - should all technically be grass-fed buffalo.
All bison are grass-fed, though some may be "finished" on grains. “Finished” refers to the time that animals are fattened for the last few months before slaughter. Bison that have been exclusively grass-fed and grass-finished will typically be labeled as 100 percent grass-fed.
In addition, grass-fed buffalo meat nutrition includes higher levels of two
powerful antioxidants; beta-carotene and selenium than beef. It also has more iron than conventional beef. However, it has a lower amount of saturated fats.
Buffalo v Grass-fed beef:
- Buffalo contains higher levels of beta-carotene and selenium than beef
- Buffalo has less calories and less fat than grass-fed beef - leaner cut of meat
- Buffalo has less saturated fat than grass-fed beef - less omega 3’s

I love the flavor of Bison Meat. Started eating it over beef. Its really exciting that it doesn't have medicines injected in it.
Is bison the same as bufallo?
@@adamellistutorials No, that's a misconception people have. Bison and buffalo are two different species. Bison are what we have here in America and Buffalo are what they have in Africa. The Europeans came to America and named the bison buffalo because they thought they looked similar.
I find buffalo meat superior to cow meat in almost every way, but I am inhibited from buying it all the time due to the far higher price
It's actually way cheaper here than cow
Buffalo vs Beef
Our family has ate Buffalo for years! And if it is not cooked right it is not fit to eat! It is much harder to cook than beef. Bones are bigger in Buffalo and leaner also means tougher which is not what you want to hear when you are about to eat supper.
Even ground up like hamburger meat, Buffalo is still a tougher than ground beef.
You need to add more fat to the meat since buffalo is much leaner. That melt in the mouth feeling of beef is all fat
It can be prepared and cooked a little longer than beef to make it more tender.
I had a freezer full of beefalo, 1/8th buffalo (you can do the math), but it was some of the best meat I have ever enjoyed!
The buffalo meat we have in the Middle East mostly comes from India ( Asia water buffalo ) ! Is it similar to the Buffalo/ Bison you guys are talking about !
Mary's Free Range Organic chicken is very misleading. "Free Range" means their birds were given 1 sq ft of space each, and "organic" means they were fed corn & soybean that were organic (but its still corn & soybean, grains very high in Omega 6 and usually glyphosate). Don't be fooled by the marketing
Best place or site to buy quality bison in terms of price per pound?
Buffalo meat is healthier than all beefs.
I did not know this, ty.
even pork is better than beef
@@jave4190 yes.....
@@jamesbondreturns805that is BS!
@@jamesbondreturns805 if is way lower in nutrients
Correct me if I'm wrong. He mixes up buffalo and bison?!?!?! He thinks cow meat= beef and buffalo meat= bison??? But
on the pictures, even he shows you can see bison and buffalo are two different animals.
In America, bison are often called buffalo. They can be used interchangeably for the same animal (American bison)
@@user-bv1ss5nj9b
So all the books about Indians & Buffalo were in a way… inaccurate?
@@chrisconnors9449ha bhai bahar vaale apni buffalo ko water buffalo bolte h
There are only 2 bison farms in Virginia and currently due to inflation the bison meat is cheaper than wal mart . So I'm buying bison meat currently
Thomas, I love your videos man!! Keep it up!!
3:25, you're not buying meat from that animal in the U.S. and the there are no special guidelines from the USDA for ranching it....cause it only lives in Africa and Asia
Cows can eat grain and still be healthy. It just shouldn't be the majority of the diet. As a butcher I prefer grain added the last 100 days to the diet. This produces the most dense and healthy meat.
ok question......... farmfoods sell lean ground beef.. 93/7.. whats better is bison better than grass finished
This video is calling buffalo and Bisen synonymously. Bison is not the same animal as buffalo. Bison is closely related to cattle but not to buffalo. He showed the pictures of the 2 different animals, bison and buffalo, as one and same also.
Depends on growth
I know this doesn't have anything to with the contents in this video, but in another video you indicated that bananas were bad because of the high content of sugar in them, however I see in this video that you have bananas and apples in that fruit basket. Thanks for the explanation Mr. DeLauer.
Great video. I really like what you do. Keep it up, please.
My costco only has organic ground beef and regular bison. None if them are grass fed grass finished. Which is the lesser of the 2 evils?
I'm currently debating whether to have cows or bison on my homestead . but bison are a lot more dangerous and way more tasty. Another tasty meat treat is goat meat.
I thought there were rules that forbid feeding grains to bison.
Ribeye will always be a treat the higher fat is what makes ribeye good so with ribeye go with beef
I've eaten, buffalo meat, beef, pork, fish, dog meat. Also, sorts of raptiles..
But for me beef is soft, baffalo is hard meat
life is too short to worry about this shit!! eat everything with moderation and exercise at least twice a week, dont take meds unless you absolutely have to and you be healthy and happy
Well, if you are against taking medication unless you have to then are you not opposed to the trace amounts of medications in your food that are pumped into the animal?
Good video sir but, I believe you mean Bison?
so what is better organic beef or regular bison
good vid, thanx for the comparison.
That's a Bison, not a Buffalo. And no, the terms are not interchangeable.
Nice picture of a bunch of dairy cows, haven’t butchered on of those yet and I don’t plan on it
Awesome video and informative. Thanks
Bro first of all, that pic is a Bison not Buffalo don't confuse yourself
Awesome video, thanks🤙
good video, but most of the cows shown are all dairy cows, not beef cattle
Read my original comment above from 2/15/2019.
Thanks! But I have to know where that mountain valley scene at 1:09 was shot. Any Idea? Looks like some valleys I saw in Switzerland.
Dan DePriest beautiful isn’t it
The meat that’s eaten in Siberia is a bit different to the meat eaten in Alaska although it’s close by. I hope the permafrost melting doesn’t make herds die.
great video thanks for the info, I was looking to know that .😊👍👍👍
and good luck with everything you do!!
Really? You bought that load of tripe? I hope you are being ironic,
Of course there be a vegan commercial prior to this video
Can't live without that delicious steak. 😋
Most the pictures of the cows are dairy cows for MILK, not meat. They’re also raised differently. I don’t think I’m going to trust someone who can’t tell dairy from beef cattle.
braden shakespeare Actually most farmers say milk cows give off some of the best meat so they are kinda the same.
Both tasty
Well then how do we know if the Grass fed beef we purchase is Organic? Are grass fed cattle just fed grass cattle pumped with antibiotics and various hormones?
Pastures have to be cultivated with fertilizer and sometimes resown. If this is not by organic standards, then the beef is not organic. If the label says organic, then you have to trust the manufacture or farmer that they have raised the animal accordingly.
Buffalo is much better

4:23 .........Princeville Ranch and Jurassic Kahili Ranch....................are both on the island of Kauai in Hawaii. How much meat do they sell outside of Hawaii......and does the cost of flying it to other parts of the world get added to the cost of the meat?
If it costs more than you'll either eat it less often, or less less total weight each time. What's the point?
That's like buying free range chickens that cost $8.00 per pound even if they were raised in the same county that you live in.
Thomas de lawyer.
Whats your thought on ground turkey like jennie o 93% fat free i suggest a video on that
Turkey is high omega 6 and like all poultry, less nutrient dense than red meat.
This video is good
I think this is just the US, here in the UK our cows are all grass fed.
Are you talking about African Buffalo or American Buffalo
It is all great if you can afford it.
I love your videos!
im gonna start buying bison meat it has more protein than fatty beef. and is better for us
Bison*
Thomas delauer I just got done watching your video about your seven day organic reboot and there's like 1 million links can you please reply back with the official link so I can order it please & ty sir
I clicked off when he said buffalo #SMDH
Bison
Thank you this is useful. Are bison better for the natural ecology? Can we restore the herds sustainably? Is the leather and wool useable?
Yes because pretty much all bison are grass fed and pasture raised. This means bisons eat grass and then the manure enriches the soil. Pasture raised beef/poultry are best for the environment
Oo good
I don't think we are eating water buffalo right lol why would u show a pic of a water buffalo C'mon mannnn and Bison are not buffalo right ?
Randall Lion - In MURICA, 'buffalo' and 'bison' are interchangeable.
+1
Bison and buffalo are not interchangeable
You’re just ignorant
@@exratic5908 oh but they are
Read my original comment above from 2/15/2019.
Bison and buffalo are 2 different animals lol
To me this guy totally misses the point of which is better. When the hell did lean equal better? He seems to think for some unknown reason that no fat in a piece if beef makes it the best of all. I feel that he is doing his best to plate up and serve the viewing public a load of garbage. I agree with him that grass fed cattle and bison not "buffalo" is a healthier and better animal. I also prefer to eat these cattle. The reason I prefer to eat them however has nothing to do with the fat content of this beef. It simply and quite fantastically TASTES better. Imagine that, picking a meal because you prefer the FLAVOR. Just as cattle naturally like to eat grass and forage for tasty branches in the forest, human beings like to eat these animals because of the way that they taste. I also would like to comment on one of the video clips that he posted. It was at 2:45. These animals are DAIRY cows they do seem to be eating here and not giving milk. There are also issues in having cattle who eat things like silage and grain giving milk at the dairy. I would certainly prefer to have milk for my family that did not come from cattle who were fed in this way but it seems totally disingenuous and kind of like a lie that he is representing these DAIRY COWS as beef cattle. Hey man try something with a bit of fat on it and enjoy yourself and stop feeding slop like this to our eyes. PLEASE.
crickets...
I see beef, I eat it. Grass fed or not. 🐄🥩
butcher at Wholefoods said it taste gross
You need a new butcher
Butcher at Wholefoods in not a real butcher. Just a student or guy who needed a job. Nothing wrong with that, but these people are not butchers. They know nothing about meat.

Buffalo and Bison, 2 Completely Different Animals.
I grew up thinking Buffalo were Bison. The indians
Were killing Bison not Buffalo.
