This is the ultimate Friday night take-out kind of dinner, but amped up 20 notches! It’s reminiscent of hot summer nights with greasy cardboard containers filled with hot fries, and crunchy bites of fried goodness, eating outside on a picnic table. These are best served immediately, but there’s just something about eating them cold, straight from the fridge too! Pro tip: in order to prevent the breading from falling off the bison once it comes out of the hot oil (which is a common problem with breaded meats) put the plate of breaded cubes in the fridge for an hour before frying. This helps the breading solidify on the meat a bit, and prevent it from falling off. 

Ingredients

Makes 4 burgers
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Grill Time: 10-12 minutes
Total Time: approximately 30 minutes

Ingredients
For the burgers:
454g Extra Lean Ground Noble Premium Bison
1 egg
1 green onion, finely sliced
1/2 cup (120ml) seasoned panko breadcrumbs
2 tbsp (30ml) jerk seasoning
1 tbsp (15ml) onion powder
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
Salt and pepper to taste
For garnish: fresh sprouts, lettuce, avocado, sesame seed burger buns

For the salsa:
1 cup (240ml) fresh pineapple, finely diced
1 cob corn
1 red bell pepper, finely diced
1 habanero pepper, seeds removed and finely diced (optional)
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1/2 small red onion, finely minced
1/2 cup (120ml) fresh cilantro, finely chopped
Zest and juice of one lemon
2 tbsp (30ml) olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Preheat grill to medium high heat (about 375-400 degrees F). Meanwhile, mix together all the ingredients for the bison burgers. *Pro tip: replace the salt and pepper with your favourite BBQ rub for even more flavour! Grill the burgers over direct heat for 5-6 minutes per side, until an internal temperature of 160 degrees F for well-done is reached. Grill the cob of corn at the same time, flipping frequently until charred on all sides. Remove the corn from the cob. While the burgers are resting, combine all the ingredients for the salsa in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly to combine. To serve: put the burgers on buns, and top with fresh lettuce, sprouts, the salsa, mayo and sliced avocado. Serve immediately.

Ingredients

Directions:

Makes 8-9 sausages
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Roast Time: 25-30 minutes
Total Time: 35-45 minutes

These sausages are incredible impressive, yet very simple to make! Caul fat is the membrane which surrounds the internal organs of cows, sheep and pigs. Traditionally, it is used to wrap roasts, sausages, or other meat dishes to add moisture and fat, and reduce waste when butchering an animal. Despite its lace-like appearance while raw, once it’s cooked it becomes clear, and unnoticeable in the final dish. These sausages are wonderful served with gravy and mashed potatoes, or fried peppers and onions on a bun. They’re also a great conversation-generating appetizer when sliced on a diagonal and served with pickles and mustard. 

Ingredients

Directions:

Serves 6-8
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes (smoking time), 10-12 minutes
Total Time: Approximately 1 hour

Ingredients
1 tbsp (15ml) butter
1/2 tbsp (7.5ml) avocado oil
226g (8oz) Noble Premium Bison Striploin steak
250g (8.8oz) plain cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup (237ml) old cheddar cheese
2 tsp (10ml) your favourite BBQ rub
1 tsp (5ml) fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1/4 cup dried cranberries
2 green onions, finely sliced

For the smoked pecans:
3/4 cup (175ml) pecans
1/2 tbsp (7.5ml) maple syrup
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) cinnamon
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp (5ml) fresh rosemary, finely chopped

Directions:

First, preheat your smoker to 250 degrees F. Smoke the pecans on a tray for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned and fragrant. (Pro Tip: use pecan wood or pellets for an EXTRA delicious blast of pecan flavour!). Remove them from the smoker, chop them coarsely, and toss in the maple syrup and spies. Set aside to cool. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Add the butter and avocado oil. Pat the steak dry with paper towel, and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Sear the steak for 5-6 minutes per side, or until an internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness (135 degrees F for medium rare). Allow the steak to rest for 10 minutes before chopping into small pieces. Set aside to cool. Meanwhile, mix the remaining ingredients together in a large bowl. Add the chopped steak. Mix thoroughly. Form into a large ball, pressing to ensure it’s tightly formed. Roll in the smoked pecan mixture. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.

Serves 4-6
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes

Ingredients
2x 226g (8oz) packages Top Sirloin Bison Steak, cut into large pieces
1/4 cup (59ml) flour
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp (30ml) avocado oil
2 onions, finely chopped
6-8 cloves garlic, finely minced
2-3 carrots, seeded chopped
1 tsp (5ml) dried thyme
2 bay leaves
3 tbsp (45ml) tomato paste
473ml beer (about 2 cups)
2 cups (500ml) beef broth
1/2 tbsp (7.5ml) Worcestershire
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) instant coffee
2 cups (500ml) frozen peas

For the dumplings:

3 cups (750ml) all purpose flour
1 1/2 tbsp (22.5ml) baking powder
1 tsp (5ml) salt
1 tsp (5ml) garlic powder
2 cups (500ml) half and half

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine the bison with the flour, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Heat a Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the avocado oil, and brown the bison, in batches, ensuring the pieces aren’t touching one another. Remove the bison, and set aside. Add the onions, carrots, garlic, thyme, bay leaf and tomato paste. Stir for 1-2 minutes. Add the bison back in, and add the beer. Stir and allow to cook for 3-4 minutes before adding the beef broth, instant coffee, and Worcestershire sauce. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, prepare the dumpling mixture. Mix the flour with the baking powder, salt and garlic powder. Whisk in the half and half. Set aside.

After an hour of simmer, remove the lid, add the peas and stir. Drop the dumplings into the stew with a large spoon. Pro Tip: An ice cream scoop works well for this! Cover, and cook for another 25-30 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready when a tooth pick inserted into a dumpling comes out clean. To serve: garnish with fresh chives.

Serves 4-6
Prep Time: 10 minutes

1/2 green cabbage, chopped
1 tbsp (15ml) Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp (30ml) butter
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the avocado oil. Brown the bison on all sides until golden brown - about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Deglaze the pan with the beer, and then add the broth. Add the pickling spice to a loose leaf tea bag, or cheesecloth wrapped with butchers twine to close it. Place it in the broth.

Serves 4-6
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes

Ingredients
1 tbsp (15ml) avocado oil
454g Extra Lean Ground Noble Premium Bison
1 small red onion, finely chopped
4-5 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 tsp (5ml) dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp (30ml) whisky*
1 tsp (5ml) Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp (5ml) balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp (15ml) maple syrup
375g lasagne pasta
320g mozarella cheese
300g frozen spinach, thawed and squeeze to remove excess water

For the squash layer:

1 medium-size butternut squash, peeled, seeds removed and cut into small cubes (about 4 cups)
1 tbsp (15ml) avocado oil
1 tsp (5ml) dried sage
1/4 tsp (1.25ml) nutmeg
Salt and pepper to taste

For the béchamel:

1 stick (125ml) butter
1/2 cup (125ml) flour
3 cups (750ml) Half and half cream
1 tsp (5ml) onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven or grill to 425 degrees F. Toss the butternut squash with the oil, and spices. Spread on a parchment-lined cookie sheet, and roast for 20 minutes. Set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the avocado oil. Add the bison, and allow it to brown for 5-6 minutes before adding in the onion, garlic, and seasonings. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to cook for another 4-5 minutes before deglazing with the whiskey, and adding the Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, and maple syrup. Remove from the heat, and set aside.

To make the béchamel: melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, and whisk constantly for 4-6 minutes, until lightly golden. Slowly whisk in the cream. Reduce the heat, add the onion powder, season with salt and pepper and continue whisking until slightly thickened - another 2-3 minutes.

To assemble: layer the ingredients in a 2.5L casserole dish, ensuring each layer has some of the béchamel, lasagna sheets, bison mixture, squash, spinach and cheese.

Bake in a 350 degree F oven or grill for one hour, until the top layer is golden brown and bubbling. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into pieces.

*For a non-alcoholic option, use 1/4 cup of beef broth instead.

Makes 4 large waffles
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients
226 grams (8oz) Lean Ground Noble Premium Bison
1/2 tbsp (7.5ml) avocado oil
Salt and pepper to taste

For the waffles:
1 1/4 cup (296ml) all purpose flour
1/2 tbsp (7.5ml) baking powder
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) dried sage
Pinch of nutmeg
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) salt
2 tbsp (30ml) maple syrup
1 egg
1/4 cup (59ml) melted butter
1 cup (237ml) milk
1 bunch of green onions, finely chopped

Directions:

Add the oil to a pan over medium high heat, and add the bison. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until it’s starting to brown. Use a wooden spoon to break it up. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside to cool completely. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Whisky in the maple syrup, egg, butter, milk and green onions. Add the cooled bison meat, and stir to combine.
Preheat your waffle iron, and spray liberally with non-stick cooking spray. Spoon the mixture evenly into the waffle iron (if your waffle iron makes 4 waffles), and shut the lid. If your waffle iron has a dial, make sure it’s set to a higher setting to ensure the waffles cook throughout. Pro Tip: Waffles with add-ins cook a bit longer than traditional waffles. When the waffles are finished cooking, remove from the waffle iron, and serve with butter and more maple syrup.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Marinating Time: 8-12 hours
Grill Time: 10-12 minutes (with 10 minutes resting time)
Total Time: 35-37 minutes (plus 8-12 hours marinating time)

Ingredients
1lb (500g) Beef Flank Marinating Steak
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil
1/4 cup (60ml) white wine vinegar
2 tbsp (30ml) fresh oregano, finely minced (or 1/2 tsp dried oregano)
1/2 tsp (1.5ml) dried chiles (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste

Dressing:
1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil
3 tbsp (45ml) white wine vinegar
1 tbsp (15ml) Dijon mustard
1 tbsp (15ml) honey
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1 tsp (3ml) fresh oregano, finely minced (or 1/4 tsp dried oregano)

For the salad:
1 pint (551ml) multi-coloured cherry tomatoes, sliced
1-2 large heirloom tomatoes, sliced
3-4 ripe nectarines (or peaches), halved and pits removed
1/4 of a large red onion, finely sliced
100g feta cheese, crumbled
50g micro greens

Directions:

Combine all the ingredients for the marinade in a large sealable freezer bag. Pierce the steak all over with a fork, and place it in the bag. Ensure the marinade is coated all over the steak. Close the bag, and refrigerate for 8-12 hours.
Remove the meat from the marinade, and discard the remaining marinade. Pat the steak with a paper towel to dry, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat the grill to high heat (between 400-450 degrees F). Grill the steak over direct heat for 5-6 minutes per side, until an internal temperature reads your preferred level of doneness (145 degrees F for medium rare doneness). Transfer to a plate or cutting board and allow the steak to rest for 10 minutes.

Spray the nectarines with avocado oil, and grill over direct heat for 2-3 minutes on the cut side. Set aside to cool. Meanwhile, combine all the ingredients for the dressing in a jar with a tight fitting lid, and shake to combine.
Cut the steak across the grain into thin slices.
To serve: arrange the tomatoes, nectarines, onions, and feta on a large serving platter, or individual plates. Top with the steak, and drizzle with the dressing over top. Garnish with micro greens.

*Charcoal grilling instruction: set up your grill for indirect cooking (light your charcoal, and place them directly where you plan on cooking the steak. This is normally right in the centre of the grill.) Once the grill reaches 400-450 degrees F, grill the steak over direct heat for 5-6 minutes per side, until an internal temperature reads your preferred level of doneness (145 degrees F for medium rare). Transfer to a plate or cutting board, and allow the steak to rest for 10 minutes.

Serves 2-4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

3-4 medium-sized zucchini
226g (8 oz) Lean Ground Noble Premium Bison
2/3 cup (158ml) basmati rice, rinsed
1 small onion, finely minced
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) cumin powder
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) garlic powder
1/4 tsp (1.25ml) allspice
1/4 tsp (1.25m) black pepper
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) salt
1 tbsp (15ml) olive oil

For the sauce:

1 cup (240ml) cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
2 cup water
6-7 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) salt
2 bay leaves

Garnish: Juice of one lemon, mint & parsley, finely chopped

Directions:

Preheat grill (or oven) to 375° Fahrenheit. If using the grill, ensure you have your grill set up for indirect cooking (the heat is not located directly under where the skillet will be placed). Cut the zucchini in half, lengthwise. Use a melon baller to scoop out the inside. In a medium sized bowl, combine all the ingredients for the filling. Spoon the filling into the zucchini. Try not to overfill them, keeping in mind that the rice will expand as it cooks. Arrange the zucchini in a cast iron skillet, with the filling facing up. For the sauce, add the cherry tomatoes, water, garlic and salt to a blender. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, until fully smooth. Pour the sauce around the zucchini. Cover, and bake with the grill lid shut (or in an oven) for 40-45 minutes, until the sauce has reduced. Remove the lid, and drizzle lemon juice over the top, along with chopped parsley and mint.

Preheat cast iron skillet over high heat on the grill or stove top for 5-6 minutes. Add the oil, and allow to heat for another minute before adding the bison. Cook the bison, stirring occasionally, until it develops a golden brown colour - about 10-12 minutes. Add the taco seasoning, and stir to combine. Remove from heat. Allow to cool completely. Combine the sour cream and cream cheese together, and mix thoroughly. Mix the green pepper with the jalapeño pepper. Using a tall sided 8x8 - inch container (ideally 3 inches deep), layer all the ingredients together. We recommend the following order for the most visually appealing layer dip! Cream cheese mixture first at the bottom, then the bison, corn, salsa, peppers, black olives, guacamole, green onions, cheese, cilantro. Garnish with more black olives, green onions, and if desired, finely chopped cherry tomatoes. Cover and chill until ready to serve!

Makes 6 tacos
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Griddle Time: 4-6 minutes
Total Time: 19-21 minutes ).

Ingredients
1 454g package Extra Lean Ground Noble Premium Bison
6 medium, soft tortillas (5.5inch round)
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp (30ml) avocado oil
4 slices cheddar cheese

Smash Burger sauce:

1/4 cup (60ml) mayonnaise
2 tbsp (30ml) ketchup
1 tsp (5ml) white vinegar
1 tbsp (15ml) mustard
1 tbsp (15ml) relish
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) onion powder
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) sugar
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) your favourite BBQ seasoning

Toppings:

Red onion, finely chopped
Pickles, finely chopped
Tomato, sliced
Iceberg lettuce, finely sliced

Directions:

Preheat griddle to medium high heat (between 425-450° Fahrenheit). Use a sharp knife to divide the bison into 6 equal portions. Take a portion of the meat, and smear it on a tortilla in a thin, even layer. Use your finger tips to push the meat against the tortilla firmly, and bring it as close to the edge of the tortilla as possible. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Repeat with remaining portions of bison and tortillas. In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the smash burger sauce and set aside.

Lightly oil the griddle, and place the tortilla on the surface, with the bison side facing down. Use a burger press or griddle spatula to press the tortilla down. Flip after 3-4 minutes, once the bison has developed a nice brown crust on it. As soon as you flip it, place a slice of cheese on the meat. Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the tortilla is golden brown. Top the smash burger tacos with the sauce, and your favourite burger toppings!

Ingredients
Cream Sauce

1/2 cup 10% cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 yellow onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp your favourite BBQ rub of
Few dashes of hot sauce

SANDWICHES

1 tri-tip steak, grilled to medium rare
2 slices of Bavarian multi-grain bread
1 tomato, thinly sliced and salt and peppered
6 pieces of bacon
Bacon drippings
chopped parsley for garnish

Directions:

In a small saucepan, fry the butter and onions until onions turn golden brown. Add the flour and whisk over moderate heat for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the hot milk and bring to a boil. Add the BBQ rub. Cook, whisking, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.

Lay out pieces of bacon on a flat baking pan lined with parchment paper. Cool over indirect heat until bacon browns to your desired doneness.

Preheat your grill on high heat for 10 minutes. While the grill is preheating, season tri-tip steak with BBQ rub. Once the grill has been preheated, place tri-tip steak onto the grill and gently pat down, so that the entire steak is making contact with the grill grate. Grill steak to medium rare, 135-145 °F, flipping once. Allow meat to rest 10 minutes, then thinly slice against the grain

Place slices of bread onto the grill, do not walk away from the grill, bread grills quickly! Flip the bread once and immediately place it into the bacon drippings, allowing the bread to soak up the drippings like a sponge.

Begin building the sandwich by laying the bacon onto the bread first, then the sliced and seasoned tomatoes, then the sliced tri-tip steak. Spoon the cream sauce over the top of the sandwich, and garnish with fresh parsley. Bite into this juicy delicious sandwich by picking it up with your hands (warning, you’ll need a LOT of napkins!) or cut it with a knife and fork for a more dainty dining experience. Either way, you’re going to LOVE this one!

Serves 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook/Grill Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes

Ingredients

1 tbsp (15ml) avocado oil
1 8oz (226g) package Noble Premium Bison steak cubes
2 tbsp (30ml) butter
1 medium sized onion, chopped
2-3 stalks celery, chopped
4-6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp (15ml) tamari
3/4 cups (190ml) sun dried tomatoes, finely chopped
1 tsp (5ml) dried oregano
3 1/2 (875ml) cups vegetable broth
500g gnocchi
3-4 cups (approximately 113g) fresh spinach, chopped
1/2 cup (125ml) fresh basil, chopped
1 cup (250ml) whipping cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Chives or basil, chopped (for garnish)

Directions:

Heat a Dutch oven over medium high heat (on the stove, or on the grill, over direct heat) for 3-4 minutes. Add the avocado oil, and allow to warm for 2 minutes. Add the bison cubes, and do not stir. Allow to brown for 5-6 minutes before attempting to move. If it’s sticking to the bottom, it simply means it isn’t browned yet, and it isn’t ready to release from the bottom. Season with salt and pepper. Once browned on all sides, add the butter. Add the onion, celery and garlic. Cook until fragrant - about 2 minutes. Add the tamari, sun dried tomatoes, oregano, and vegetable broth. Cover and cook for 45 minutes - 1 hour, until the bison is tender. Add the gnocchi and cook according to package directions. Add the spinach, basil, cream and stir until the spinach wilts. Season to taste. Garnish with chopped chives or basil.

Serves 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Grill Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

4-8 small sweet potatoes, washed
1 15 ounce can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed

For the chimichurri:

1/2 small red onion
1-2 tsp Calabrian chili flakes
3-5 garlic cloves
1 tsp salt
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 cup fresh cilantro
1 cup fresh parsley
1 tbsp dried oregano
Zest and juice of one lemon
1/2 cup olive oil

Directions:

Pour some lump charcoal in the bottom of your Big Green Egg (or other charcoal grill). Light the coals. Leave the lid up while the coals light. Meanwhile, add all chimichurri ingredients to a food processor, except the oil. Pulse until your desired consistency and slowly drizzle in the oil as the machine is on. That’s all! Chimichurri develops as it rests, so make ahead and allow the flavours to meld overnight even!

Once the coals are red hot (it’s not as important what the temp of the grill is, try and keep it around 300-325 degrees) add the sweet potatoes on top. Push past the feeling that they are going to burn. Shut the lid, and rotate them every 5-7 minutes, ensuring they are scorched on all sides. Use a knife to test the doneness - if the potato slips off with its own weight, it’s cooked through. If you’re spearing it with the knife and it stays on the knife, it’s still not cooked. Remove the potatoes from the grill after approximately 20 minutes, and allow to cool before handling.

Use your fingers to remove the skins of the potatoes. Leave some of the charred bits on, if you’re feeling extra cheeky! Think of roasted red peppers - the process and result is very similar here. If you enjoy that extra kick of smokey flavour, leave some on. If you don’t, remove all the dark bits.

To serve: cut the sweet potatoes into 1 inch slices. Layer on a plate with the chickpeas, and chimichurri. Top with more chilies and cilantro!

Makes 12 sliders
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Grill Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

1 8oz (226g) Noble Premium Bison Top Sirloin steak
BBQ rub, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
2 onions, finely sliced
1 tbsp (15ml) balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
12 slices cheddar cheese
3 tbsp (45ml) butter, melted
2 cloves garlic minced
1 tsp (5ml) dried parsley
1 (340g) 12-pack of King’s Hawaiian Sweet Rolls

For the horseradish mayo:

1/4 cup (60ml) mayo
1 tbsp (15ml) horseradish
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) garlic powder
Black pepper to taste

Directions:

Season the steak with your favourite BBQ rub, ensuring all sides are well seasoned. Set aside. Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil. Add the onions, and allow to caramelize for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the balsamic vinegar, and set aside. Combine all the ingredients for the horseradish mayo in a bowl. Set aside. Preheat grill to high heat, between 450-500° Fahrenheit. Allow the grill to preheat for at least 10-12 minutes - this will ensure that the steak won’t stick to the grates. Grill the steak over direct heat (or, if you’re feeling extra cheeky, directly on the coals ‘caveman style!’) until an internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness (between 130°-140° for medium rare). This can take anywhere between 2-4 minutes, however make sure you’re focusing on internal temperature, and not time. Remove the steak from the grill, onto a clean plate. Lightly tent with foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice thinly across the grain.

Using a bread knife, slice the sweet rolls as one whole loaf, removing the tops from the bottoms. Place the bottoms in a grill pan. Spread the horseradish mayo evenly on both sides. Arrange six slices of cheese on the bottom half. Top with onions, sliced steak, and remaining six slices of cheese. Add the top of the buns. Mix the melted butter with the garlic, and parsley and brush over top of the buns. Reduce the grill temperature to 350° by adjusting the top and lower vents.

Add the buns to the grill, and allow to cook for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese melts.

Serves 4-6
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour 40 minutes
Total Time: 2 hours

Ingredients

1 tbsp (15ml) avocado oil
1 226g (8oz) package Noble Premium Bison Steak Cubes
1 medium sized onion, finely chopped
4-5 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 tbsp (30ml) tomato paste
1/4 tsp (1ml) red pepper flakes
1/3 cup (80ml) vodka
1 tbsp (15ml) balsamic vinegar
680ml passata
1/4 cup (60ml) fresh basil, chopped
1/2 cup (125ml) half and half
Salt and pepper to taste

For the filling:

340g jumbo pasta shells
190g prepared pesto
454g ricotta cheese
1 egg
1 cup (250ml) mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup (60ml) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Black pepper to taste

For the top: olive oil, more mozzarella

Directions:

Heat a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add the oil, and allow to heat. Add the bison, and brown on all sides - about 15 minutes. Add the onion, garlic, and stir. Add the vodka, balsamic vinegar, tomato paste and red pepper flakes. Stir. Add the passata and basil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 1 hour. Add the cream, stir to combine.

Meanwhile, combine the ricotta with the pesto, cheeses, egg and black pepper. Cook the pasta according to package directions. Fill the shells with the filling. In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spoon a small amount of sauce to cover the bottom. Arrange the filled shells in the pan. Cover with remaining bison sauce. Drizzle with a little olive oil, and some more mozzarella cheese. Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven (or grill) for 40-45 minutes until bubbly.

Makes 4 scotch eggs

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Grill Time: 50 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes

Ingredients
4 boiled eggs
454g Extra Lean Ground Noble Premium Bison
1 egg
1/2 tbsp (7.5ml) olive oil
1/3 cup (80ml) breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) dry mustard
1 tsp (5ml) fennel seeds
1 tsp (5ml) onion powder
1 tsp (5ml) garlic powder
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) salt
Black pepper to taste
1/4 cup (60ml) BBQ sauce

Directions:

Cook your eggs to your preferred level of doneness. Once the shells are removed, use a paper towel to make sure they are as dry as possible. This will help the meat adhere to the egg. Preheat your charcoal grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. For even smokier flavour, add a chunk of fruit wood before dumping in your lit coals - apple and peach are perfect for this recipe! In a large bowl, mix the bison, along with the egg, oil, breadcrumbs, and all spices. Mix thoroughly to combine. Divide the mixture into four equal balls. Use your hands to flatten each ball into a thin patty. Wrap each patty around a boiled egg, and press firmly to make sure the eggs are evenly covered with the bison mixture. Place the eggs over indirect heat in the grill (over the side that doesn’t have the hot coals underneath). Close the lid, and allow to cook for 40 minutes. Remove lid, brush the eggs with BBQ sauce, close the lid and cook for another 10 minutes. 

Prep Time: 15 minutes 
Grill Time: 45 minutes 
Total Time: 1 hour 

Ingredients
For the Meatballs:
½ cup cornmeal
2 thinly sliced green onions (white only, keep greens for garnish!)
1 egg
1 tbsp minced garlic
3 tbsp tamari
¼ tsp red pepper flakes
1lb ground beef
1lb ground chicken

For the Mongolian Sauce:
½ cup water with 1 tsp corn starch mixed in
⅓ cup brown sugar
¼ cup tamari
1 tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp grated ginger
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp sriracha
2 tsp toasted sesame seeds for garnish

Directions:

SAUCE: Start by making the sauce, so that when the meatballs come off the grill, they can go for a spicy dip dive into this luscious sauce!

Heat the ingredients for the sauce (except the sesame seeds) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Allow the sauce to simmer and thicken for 5 minutes.

MEATBALLS: In a large bowl, combine the cornmeal, green onions, egg, minced garlic, tamari, and red pepper flakes. Mix together until totally combined. Then, add the ground beef and mix until just combined, you don’t want to overwork the meat or you’ll have tough meatballs. Shape the meatball mixture into balls using 1 tablespoon of the meat mixture per meatball.

(Optional pro tip! Place meatballs into the freezer for 15 minutes so the exterior becomes frozen. It makes it soooo much easier to transfer to the grill!)

Get your grill fired up to 400 degrees F and setup for indirect cooking. Place meatballs onto the grill and close the lid.
Allow the meatballs to continue cooking until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 40 minutes). Take the balls right off of the grill and into the sauce so they absorb some of that delicious flavour!

Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion! We suggest serving these with rice or add a toothpick and serve them as appetizers!

Serves 6-8

Ingredients
For the meatloaf mixture:
1 454g package Extra Lean Ground Bison 
1/2 lb bacon, finely chopped 
2 eggs 
1 small onion, finely chopped
1/2 tbsp (7.5ml) Worcestershire sauce 
1/3 cup (80ml) seasoned breadcrumbs 
1 tbsp (15ml) your favourite BBQ rub

For the Mac & Cheese filling:
1 cup (250ml) macaroni
3 tbsp (45ml) butter 
1 heaping cup (250ml) shredded old cheddar cheese 
1 tsp (5ml) garlic powder 
For brushing: 1/2 cup 125ml) BBQ sauce 

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients for the meatloaf. Mix throughly, until just combined. Boil plenty of salted water. Cook macaroni according to package directions, until just al dente. It will continue to cook in the smoker, so make sure you don’t overcook it! Drain, and add the butter and garlic powder. Toss to melt the butter, and allow to cool. Mix in the cheese. 

1. Place a piece of parchment paper on top of a cutting board, or clean countertop. Spread the meat mixture out to form a large rectangle that is about 1/2 inch thick. Spread the macaroni & cheese evenly on top, leaving a one-inch section at the top bare. Using the parchment paper, carefully roll the meat away from yourself, making sure to keep it tight, and contain the macaroni and cheese - similar to rolling a sushi roll! When you get to the top, use the bare section to seal the meatloaf, and make sure that seam is on the bottom. Press in the mixture on the ends, containing the macaroni and cheese so it won’t ooze out. 
2. Use the parchment to lift and place the meatloaf into a grill pan, making it easier to carry to the smoker. Preheat grill or smoker to 225 degrees F. Smoke for 4 hours, or until an internal temperature reads 165 degrees F. After about 2 hours, brush on some BBQ sauce every now and then for a beautiful glossy exterior. 
3. Remove from the smoker, and allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Ingredients
1 tbsp (15ml) olive oil 
226g (8oz) Noble Premium Bison Steak Cubes
1 shallot, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced 
1/3 cup (80ml) red bell pepper, minced
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) smoked paprika
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) cumin
1 red chili, finely minced 
680ml (24 fl oz) crushed tomatoes 
3 eggs 
Salt and pepper to taste 
For garnish, fresh parsley and scallions

Directions:

Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add the bison, and cook for 10-15 minutes, until lightly browned. Add the shallot, garlic, pepper, spices, chili and stir. Cook for an additional 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes, cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Divide the sauce evenly among three, oven proof ramekins that have lids. Crack an egg into each ramekin, and add the lid. *Pro Tip: crack the egg into a separate bowl first, and then add it to the ramekin. That way, if a shell fragment happens to fall in, you can easily remove it without getting it lost in the shakshuka! Place in preheated 400 degree oven/grill, and cook the eggs to your desired level of doneness - 2-4 minutes. Garnish with parsley, scallions and crusty bread.

1 egg
1 tsp (5ml) Dijon mustard
1 tsp (5ml) prepared horseradish 
1/4 cup (60ml) seasoned bread crumbs 
1 tsp (5ml) onion powder
1 tsp (5ml) garlic powder

4-6 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp (5ml) dried thyme
2 tbsp (30ml) butter
2 tbsp (30ml) Canadian Whiskey 
Salt and pepper to taste 

450g (2 sheets) frozen puff pastry 
1 egg, whisked with 1 tbsp water

Divide the bison into four equal patties, and form into a slight cylinder shape. Place one patty on four of the squares of puff pastry. Divide the duxelles into four portions. Spoon evenly over each bison patty, and use your fingers to mould the mushroom mixture around the bison, creating a thin, even layer on top. Brush egg wash around each patty. Top with remaining squares of puff pastry, and use a decorative design to tightly seal the pastry. Cut a small slit in the top for steam to escape. 
Preheat grill (or oven) to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place Wellingtons on a parchment-lined baking tray, and grill over indirect heat (or in an oven) for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until golden browned.

Serves 2
Prep Time: 15 minutes 
Griddle Time: 10 minutes 
Total Time: 25 minutes 

Ingredients
2 x 226g (8oz) inside round Noble Premium Bison steaks
2 eggs, beaten
2 tbsp milk
1 cup all purpose flour 
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp onion powder 
Black pepper to taste 

For the gravy:
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 large onion, chopped 
1/4 cup flour 
2 cups milk
Black pepper to taste
1/4 tsp garlic powder 
Chives, for garnish 

Directions:

In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium high heat. Add onions and cook for about 5 minutes, until the onions are starting to get browned on the edges. Add the flour, and cook for another minute. Add remaining ingredients. Turn heat to low, and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes. 
In a shallow bowl, combine the egg with the milk. Season to taste. In a separate shallow bowl, combine the flour with spices. Using a meat mallet, pound the steaks to 1/4 inch thickness. Pro Tip: if you don’t have a meat mallet, drape plastic wrap over the steaks and use a rolling pin!

Makes 1 baguette
Prep time: 10 minutes 
Grill Time: 13-15 minutes
Total Time: 23-25 minutes 

Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
2 sweet bell peppers, sliced 
1 large yellow onions, sliced 
BBQ rub to taste 
1 large baguette 
4-5 sausages
4 slices of havarti cheese 

Directions:

In a frying pan over medium high heat, sauté onions and peppers until fully cooked and lightly browned. Season with BBQ rub to taste. Remove from heat and set aside. Remove sausages from their casings, and set aside. 
Slice the top of the baguette. Hollow out the bottom half, trying to remove as much of the bread as possible. Put the peppers and onions in the bottom of the bread, followed by the cheese. Take a sausage and flatten it out as much as possible. Smear it across the top of the baguette, and try to smear it into the sides of the bread as much as possible. This will ensure that everything holds together on the grill. Preheat grill to high heat - 475-450 degrees. Once the grill is preheated, flip the baguette onto the grill in one swift motion, so the sausage is facing down on the grill grates. Allow to cook for until the sausage is nicely browned, and it pulls away from the grill - about 7-8 minutes. Flip, and transfer the baguette to indirect heat. With the lid down, allow the baguette to continue crisping up for 5 more minutes. Remove from grill. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into thick slices. 

Prep time: 20 minutes 
Smoke time: 3.5 hours

1/2 cup (125ml) grape juice, for spritzing

Blueberry BBQ Sauce:
1 cup (250ml) frozen blueberries, thawed
3/4 (190ml) cup ketchup
1/2 cup (125ml) apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp (30ml) Worcestershire sauce 
1 tbsp (15ml) maple syrup 
1 tsp (5ml) onion powder
1 tsp (5ml) garlic powder
1 tsp (5ml) chipotle chili powder 
Cracked black pepper to taste 

Directions:

First, combine all ingredients for the BBQ sauce in a small saucepan.
Simmer on low for 15 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before blending into a smooth, rich sauce. Set aside. 
Use a paper towel to remove the thin membrane from the underside of each rack of ribs. Generously coat all racks in the mustard. Sprinkle on BBQ rub, ensuring the racks and well coated on the top and underside.

Spritz each rack with grape juice. Remove each rack from the grill, and place each one on their own piece of butcher paper. Top with a few cubes of butter. Spritz again, and wrap them up. Place each wrapped rack back on the smoker, with the folded side underneath, for another 1.5 hours. Remove all racks from the butcher paper and return them to the grill. Brush on some of the blueberry BBQ sauce, and continue smoking for another 15 minutes. Brush some more on, and smoke again for an additional 15 minutes. Finally, pull them off and rest the racks for 10 minutes before serving. 

Makes two crunch wraps 

Prep Time: 15 minutes 
Griddle Time: 4-6 minutes 
Total Time: 19-21 minutes 

Ingredients
226g (89oz) lean ground Noble Premium Bison
1 small red onion, finely chopped 
1 tbsp (15ml) olive oil
1 tsp (5ml) chili powder
1 tsp (5ml) garlic powder 
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) cumin
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) chipotle chili powder 

4 burrito-sized tortillas 
1 small tomato, finely chopped 
1 cup (250ml) corn chips 
1/3 cup (80ml) salsa con queso
1/2 cup (125ml) shredder cheddar cheese 
1/2 cup (125ml) shredded iceberg lettuce 

Directions:

Heat a small frying pan over medium high heat. Warm the oil, and add the onion, bison and spices. Cook for 8-10 minutes, until all moisture is evaporated and the bison is lightly browned.
Take 2 of the tortillas, and place a small bowl in the centres. Use the bowl to trace around and cut the tortilla into two small tortillas (reserve the scraps to make cinnamon sugar tortilla chips!). Place the remaining two tortillas on a cutting board, and divide the bison in the centre of each one. Top with the queso, followed by the corn chips, then the sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, and finally the cheese. Top with the small tortilla cut-out. Tightly fold the edges around the centre, creating pleats. Preheat griddle to high heat and oil lightly. Place the wraps seam side down and griddle for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. 

Serves 2

Prep Time: 15 minutes 
Grill Time: 20-30 minutes 
Total Time: 35-45 minutes 

Ingredients
For the Caesar dressing: 
½ cup (125ml) mayonnaise 
2-3 anchovy fillets
2 cloves garlic 
1 tbsp (15ml) Dijon mustard
1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice 
1 tbsp (15ml) capers
1 tsp (5ml) Worcestershire sauce 
¼ cup (60ml) Parmesan cheese 
Pepper to taste 

1 8oz (226g) Noble Premium Bison Steak (Ribeye, Striploin or Top Sirloin)
1 head of romaine lettuce, with the bottom cut off, washed and dried 
¼ cup (60ml) Parmesan cheese, shredded 
¼ of a baguette, thinly sliced and grilled 
1 small shallot, finely sliced 
Lemon wedges and capers, for garnish 

Directions:

Combine all ingredients for the dressing into a blender. Blend until smooth. Set aside.

Set up your grill for indirect cooking – with a hot side, and a cool side. Adjust your dampers so that the temperature of your grill is hovering just above 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Pat the steak with a paper towel to absorb moisture. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Place the steak on the cool side of the grill, and shut the lid. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the steak. If you like your steak medium rare, pull it off at rare (120 degrees Fahrenheit) as it will continue to climb in temperature when you sear it. Once it reaches your desired internal temperature, throw it directly on the coals for a few seconds per side, until you get a nice, crusty brown exterior. Allow to rest before slicing.
To assemble the salad, place romaine leaves on a wooden board, and top with remaining ingredients, finishing with the sliced steak. Drizzle some of the dressing on top. 

Makes: 4 slices

Prep Time: 10 minutes 
Griddle Time: 20 minutes 
Total Time: 30 minutes 

Ingredients
Half a French loaf, cut into 4 thick slices 
Butter (for spreading on the griddle)
1 onion, finely sliced 
1 large chicken breast, cut into small cubes
1/2 lb bacon, chopped
2 cups cheddar cheese 
BBQ rub

For the BBQ Ranch:
1 cup mayo
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoning 
1/2 cup BBQ Sauce 

Directions:

Preheat griddle to medium high heat on all burners. Start with cooking the bacon until lightly golden, then add the chicken and onions. Sprinkle with BBQ rub. Griddle until golden browned - about 10-15 minutes. Using a cold block of butter, smear the block across the surface of the left side of the bacon and chicken mixture. Add the slices of bread, and griddle until lightly browned, about  5 minutes per side. Turn off burners under bread, and bacon and chicken mixture. Add the cheese to the griddle on the bare right side, in 4 separate piles. Divide the chicken and bacon mixture over top each pile of cheese, followed by a slice of the bread. When the cheese is dark on the edges, push the bread down and flip it over onto a plate. As the cheese cools, it’ll harden slightly and become incredibly crunchy, and delicious! Combine all ingredients for the BBQ ranch, and serve on the side for dipping!

Serves 3-4 

Ingredients:
3-4 tbsp butter or olive oil
1 lb chipped ham
BBQ sauce:
1 cup ketchup 
1/4 cup relish 
2 tsp apple cider vinegar 
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp onion powder 
1/2 tsp paprika 
1 tsp BBQ Rub (we used Uncle Steve’s Gator Shake)

Preheat all burners of griddle to medium high heat. Melt butter (or olive oil) and brush across the surface of the griddle. Place onions, pierogi and ham in three separate areas of the griddle. This allows you to control each item, as they all will have different cook times. Sprinkle some BBQ rub on the pierogi, and onions. Using tongs, break up the ham as much as possible. Griddle until lightly browned - about 10 minutes. Add sauce. Turn burners below ham off while the pierogi continue to cook. Stir onions occasionally until golden browned. Cook pierogi until lightly browned on each side - about 6-7 minutes per side. Add cheese. To serve - place some of the pierogi in a bowl. Top with some of the onions, and the ham. Garnish with green onions.

Makes 4 mini burgers
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Grill Time: 4-6 minutes
Total Time: 14-16 minutes

Ingredients

For the burgers:
226g (8oz) lean ground Noble Premium Bison 
1 green onion, finely minced
1 tsp (5ml) fresh ginger, grated 
1 tsp (5ml) toasted sesame oil
1 tsp (5ml) gochugaru paste 
1 clove garlic, minced 
1/4 cup (60ml) seasoned panko bread crumbs 
1 tsp (5ml) tamari 
1 egg 

For the slaw:
1 mini sweet red pepper, thinly sliced
1 mini sweet yellow pepper, thinly sliced
1 mini sweet orange pepper, thinly sliced 
1/4 cup (60ml) thinly sliced cucumber
Half a small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup (60ml) fresh cilantro, chopped
Juice of one lime
1 tsp (5ml) honey
1 tsp (5ml) toasted sesame oil 
Salt and pepper to taste 

For the mayo:
2 tbsp (30ml) kimchi, finely chopped
1/4 cup (60ml) mayo 
Sesame seed mini slider buns, for serving 

Directions:

Combine ingredients for the coleslaw in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to assemble burgers. In a medium-sized bowl, add all ingredients for the burgers, lightly mixing until just combined. Form into four small patties. Pro Tip: Place on a parchment-lined cookie sheet in the freezer for 10 minutes while the grill preheats to be able to transfer them onto the grill easier! Preheat grill to high heat (between 450-475 degrees Fahrenheit). Ensure the grill preheats for at least 10 minutes so the burgers don’t stick. Grill over direct heat for 2-3 minutes per side. While the burgers are resting (for a couple minutes), combine the kimchi and mayo. To assemble, toast buns and spread some of the mayo on both sides. Add one of the patties and as much of the coleslaw as you can fit on top! Finish with the top of the bun, and you’ve got the perfect summertime hand-held treat 

Makes 4 large skewers 
Prep Time: 10 minutes

Total time: 13-14 minutes 

Ingredients

For the jerk rub:
1 tsp (5ml) garlic powder
1 tsp (5ml) dried thyme leaves
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) onion powder
1 tsp (5ml) coconut sugar 
1/4 tsp (1ml) cayenne pepper 
1/8 tsp (0.5ml) ground ginger 
1/8 tsp (0.5ml) allspice 
1/8 tsp (0.5ml) ground cloves
1/8 tsp (0.5ml) smoked paprika
1/8 tsp (0.5ml) nutmeg 
1/4 tsp (1ml) salt (more or less to taste)
1/4 tsp (1ml) red chili flakes (more or less to taste)
Black pepper to taste 

1 x 226g package Noble Premium Bison Steak Cubes
2 tbsp (30ml) olive oil 
Zest and juice of two limes 
2 jalapeño peppers, cut into half-inch pieces (or green bell pepper for a less spicy option!)

1/2 red onion, cut into half inch pieces 
1 cup (250ml) fresh pineapple, chopped into half-inch pieces 
1/2 cup (125ml) chopped cilantro, for garnish 

Directions:

Preheat grill to HIGH heat - between 450-500 degrees Fahrenheit. Make sure you allow the grill to preheat for at least 10 minutes. This will ensure our kebabs won’t stick to the grill. In the meantime, combine all spices for the jerk rub. Add remaining ingredients into a large bowl, and toss well to ensure all the meat and vegetables are coated evenly in the rub. Cover, and allow to marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hours. Using metal skewers, skewer on the vegetables and meat, alternating between the different colours as you please. Grill over direct heat for 3-4 minutes per side. Top with chopped cilantro. 

Makes 2 double smash burgers 
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Grill Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes 

Ingredients

2 x 226g packages lean ground Noble Premium Bison
4 white onions, cut into thin rings
Salt and pepper
2 slices your favourite Ontario Cheese (we used a peppery cheddar from Prince Edward County)
1/2 cup (125ml) fresh morel mushrooms (or 1/4 cup dried)
1 tbsp (15ml) butter
2 brioche buns
Fresh pea shoots 

Truffle mayo:
1/4 cup mayonnaise 
1 tsp truffle powder (or truffle oil)
1/2 tsp onion powder 

Directions:

 Form bison into four equal balls. Set aside. Sauté morels over medium high heat in the butter until lightly browned, about 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. 

Preheat grill to high heat - between 450-500 degrees F. Use a flat top plate insert, and ensure it’s preheated for at least 10 minutes before beginning to cook. This is what will give us a nice brown crusty exterior to our patties. Oil the surface of the flattop. Cook onions with the lid down until lightly browned - about 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Arrange onions in four equal mounds. Place one bison ball over top of each mound. Using a flat press, press into each bison ball, getting them as flat as you can. Season with salt and pepper. Allow bison to brown on one side for about 5 minutes. Flip, season with salt and pepper and cook for another 5 minutes. Place a slice of cheese on two of the burgers, and allow to melt. Remove all burgers from the heat.

Salt and pepper to taste 
Handful of arugula 
For serving: amaranth, rice, or quinoa (optional)

Directions:

Preheat grill to high heat - about 450-500 degrees Fahrenheit. Ensure you allow the grill to preheat for 10-12 minutes to ensure your food will not stick to the grill. 
Meanwhile, to make the reverse marinade, whisk together all ingredients in a shallow bowl. Set aside. 
To make the salad: In a medium sized bowl, combine all ingredients for the salad, except the asparagus. Now we’re ready to grill!
Oil the steak and season with salt and pepper to taste. Over direct heat, place the asparagus and bison steak on the grill. Do not touch the steak, but use grill tongs to continuously move the asparagus around while the steak cooks. Flip the steak after 4-5 minutes. Once the steak is flipped, remove the asparagus from the grill. Continue cooking the steak for another 1-2 minutes, or until your desired internal temperature is reached (130-135 degrees Fahrenheit for medium rare). Remove from the grill, and rest for 10 minutes before slicing, and placing into the reverse marinade. Allow the meat to marinate until ready to serve. 
Roughly chop the asparagus and add it the rest of the salad ingredients. 
To serve, place some of the salad over a bed of your favourite rice/grain. Top it with some of the salad, and thin slices of the bison. Drizzle with some of the reverse marinade.

Makes: 12 donuts

Prep Time: 15 minutes 
Grill Time: 7-9 minutes 
Total Time: 22-24 minutes 

We LOVE the irresistible combination of prunes and dark chocolate in these donuts! Without the addition of ANY refined sugar, they are moist, fluffy, and earthy with just the slightest hint of smoke flavour. Prunes lend a beautifully rich colour, flavour, and moistness to these easy-to-make smoked donuts. 

Ingredients

For the prune purée:
1 1/4 cups half n half whipping cream
1 cup lightly packed California prunes 

For the donuts:
1 2/3 cups all purpose flour 
2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
4 tbsp butter, melted
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup finely chopped prunes 
1 cup of the prune purée 
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar 
2 eggs

For the ganache:
Remaining 1/2 cup prune purée 
1 cup chopped dark chocolate, melted 

Directions:

1. Preheat grill to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. If using a pellet grill, we recommend using apple pellets for this recipe. Lightly oil or spray donut pans, set aside. 
2. Add cream and prunes to a high speed blender, and blend until smooth - about 3-4 minutes, scraping down the sides as necessary. 
3. In a medium-sized bowl, mix dry ingredients. 
4. In a large-sized bowl, mix wet ingredients. 
5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and stir to combine, being careful not to over mix. The batter will look thick. 
6. Spoon mixture into a large freezer bag, and use a pair of kitchen scissors to snip off one corner of the bag. 
7. Pipe the mixture evenly amongst the donut pans. 
8. Grill over indirect heat for 7-9 minutes, until the batter springs back to the touch. 
9. Let cool for a couple minutes in the pan before turning out onto a cooling rack. Cool completely.
10. Meanwhile, combine melted chocolate with the remaining prune purée. Place in fridge for 2-3 minutes to solidify. 
11. Using a butter knife, smear a bit of the ganache on top of each donut. 

Makes: 12-14 mini biscuits

Ingredients

For the biscuits:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 tbsp sugar
6 tbsp cold butter, cut into small cubes 
1 tsp vanilla 
3/4 cup buttermilk (a bit more for brushing on top)
Cinnamon sugar (equal parts)

For the Jam:
2 cups frozen mixed berries (cherries, blueberries and blackberries)
2 green apples, peeled and finely
2 tbsp agave syrup
1 tbsp chia seeds 
Juice of two small mandarin oranges 
1 tsp vanilla 
Pinch of salt 

For serving:
Whipped cream, fresh berries, mint

Directions:

First, lets make the jam - you’ll be so shocked at how simple it is to make homemade jam without loads of sugar! Combine all ingredients, except the chia seeds, in a medium sized sauce pan. Simmer over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, until the fruit has broken down. Turn off heat and add chia seeds. Allow to cool - THAT’S IT! 
To make the biscuits, combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Using a pastry blender (or your hands!) blend the cold butter pieces in. The texture you’re looking for here are little, pea sized pieces of butter throughout the dry ingredients. Add in the buttermilk and vanilla and stir until JUST combined. Dump the mixture onto a cutting board, and form into a 1/2 inch rectangle. Cut out biscuits - we used a small mini biscuit cutter, but you can make them any size/shape you’d like! Place onto a parchment lined baking tray. Brush a little buttermilk on each one, and a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar. Bake in a 450 degree preheated grill, over indirect heat, for 10-12 minutes, until the tops and bottoms are lightly browned. To serve, top each biscuit with a bit of the jam, and some whipped cream. Top with fresh berries and mint. 

Makes: 8 large meatballs

Ingredients

For the meatballs: 
1lb beef
1 tsp bbq rub 
1 tbsp bbq sauce 
1/3 cup bread crumbs 
1 1/2 cups pulled pork 

Raspberry glaze:
2 tbsp raspberry jam 
2 tbsp ketchup 
1 tbsp soy 
1 tsp apple cider vinegar 

Directions:

In a bowl, combine ground beef with BBQ rub, sauce and bread crumbs. Mix to combine. Portion into 8 equal meatballs. Flatten each meatball into a disk, as if you were making a hamburger patty. Place a small amount of the pulled pork into the centre of the disk, and form the edges together around the pulled pork. Use your palms to re-roll the ball with the pulled pork inside. Whisk together all the ingredients for the glaze. Brush on each meatball. Preheat grill to 400 degrees F. Grill meatballs over indirect heat for 15 minutes. Brush the remaining sauce on top, and grill for an additional 15 minutes. 

Makes: 14-16 mini shepherds pies

Ingredients

For the potato topping:
3-4 small yellow potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 large sweet potato, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup butter 
1/4 cup half & half cream
Salt and pepper to taste 

For the vegetable layer:
1 341ml (12oz) can of corn
2 medium sized carrots, finely chopped 
1/2 cup frozen peas
2 tbsp butter
Salt and pepper to taste 

For the pulled pork filling:

2 tbsp butter 
3 1/2 4 cups chopped pulled pork 
1 tbsp worchestershire 
2 tsp BBQ rub 
1/3 cup BBQ sauce 

200g puff pastry 

Directions:

For the potato mixture: boil potatoes and sweet potatoes in salted water until tender - about 15-20 minutes. Mash, add butter and season to taste. Set aside to cool before spooning into a freezer bag. Cut the tip of the corner for easy piping! 

For the vegetable layer:
Boil vegetables for 1-2 minutes. Drain. Add butter. Season to taste. 

For the pulled pork mixture: Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the pulled pork, and remaining ingredients. Cook for another minute or two. Set aside.

Roll out puff pastry and use a small cookie cutter to cut out 14-16 circles to fit the bottom of your silicone muffin tins. 

To assemble: place a puff pastry circle in the bottom of each muffin cup. Add a small amount of the pulled pork mixture, followed by the vegetable mixture. Pipe on the potato mixture in whichever way you’d like - we like to pretend we’re icing a savoury, delicious, BBQ cake! 

Preheat grill to 425-450 degrees Fahrenheit. Place shepherds pies on a tin foil lined baking tray for easy clean up. Place over indirect heat for 35-40 minutes, until the tops are slightly browned.

Prep time: 20 minutes 
Cook/Grill Time: 15-16 minutes 
Total Time: 35-36 minutes 

Ingredients

For the bison breakfast sausage patties:
226g (8oz) lean ground Noble Premium Bison
1 egg
1 finely chopped shallot 
1 tsp (5ml) Worchestershire sauce 
1/2 tsp (2.5ml) dried oregano
1/4 tsp (1ml) smoked paprika
1/4 tsp (1ml) dried chilies 
Salt and pepper to taste 

For the sun dried tomato & caper hollandaise sauce:
3 egg yolks, at room temperature 
1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
1 tsp (5ml) dijon mustard
1 tsp (5ml) capers
2-3 sun dried tomatoes 
1/2 cup (125ml) butter, melted 

For serving: 
Thick-cut slices of toasted, buttered baguette
4 poached eggs 

Garlicky rapini, capers, thinly sliced sun dried tomatoes 

Directions:

In a bowl, combine all ingredients for the bison sausage patties. Form into four equal patties. Place each patty on a parchment lined baking sheet, pressing them to 1/4 inch in thickness. Pro tip: Place the tray in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. This will allow the patties to firm up slightly, and make transferring them onto the grill easier! Preheat grill to 450-500 degrees Fahrenheit. Grill patties over direct heat until an internal temperature of 150-155 degrees Fahrenheit is achieved for medium well - approximately 5-6 minutes per side. 

To make the hollandaise: 
Add all ingredients except the melted butter to a blender, and blend on high for 15-20 seconds until fully blended. Then, with the blender on high speed, slowly add the melted butter, in a consistent, steady stream (carefully using the small opening in the blender lid). Blend for another 40-45 seconds. 

To serve, place a slice of baguette on a plate. Top with some rapini, one bison patty, one poached egg, a good dollop of the hollandaise, and garnish with a little more sun dried tomato and capers. Talk about Sunday brunch at its finest!

Makes 2 servings

Ingredients

3-4 medium sized yellow potatoes, cut into wedges
2 tbsp (30ml) olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste 

For bison gravy:
1 tbsp (15ml) butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped 
226g lean ground Noble Premium Bison 
1 bay leaf 
1 tbsp (15ml) Worcestershire sauce 
1 tbsp (15ml) BBQ sauce 
1 cup (250ml) beef stock 
1 tbsp (15ml) corn starch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water
Salt and pepper to taste 

For the ‘black’ onions:
2 small yellow onions, quartered with the stems intact
1-2 tbsp (15-30ml) balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste 

1/4 cup (60ml) blue cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup (125ml) cheese curds 

To garnish (optional): balsamic glaze, chives, arugula sprouts

Directions:

To make the wedges, preheat oven (or grill) to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss potatoes with oil, and season to taste. Place in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking tray and roast in the oven until crisp - about 40-45 minutes, flipping once.

To make the bison gravy:
Melt the butter in a saucepan on medium heat. Add onions and bison, season to taste. Cook until browned - about 10 minutes. Add the bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce, BBQ sauce and beef stock and allow to cook for another 5-10 minutes. Remove the bay leaf, and add the corn starch mixture. Stir. Cook for another 1-2 minutes. Set aside. 

For the ‘black’ onions: 
Pro tip: when quartering the onions, leave the stem in tact on one end of the onion, to ensure the layers will hold together while grilling! Brush balsamic vinegar on each quarter, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Grill over high heat (450-500 degrees Fahrenheit) until blackened on each side - about 5-7 minutes per side. 

To assemble: divide the wedges into two shallow bowls. Top with cheese curds, blue cheese, and bison gravy. Garnish with balsamic glaze, finely chopped chives and arugula sprouts.

Onion
Smoked paprika 
Poultry seasoning 
Chipotle chili pepper

1 cup mayo
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp Worcestershire
1/2 tbsp horseradish
1 tbsp hot sauce
1/2 tsp black pepper 
1 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp granulated garlic
1/2 tsp dried onion

Grill at 450-500 degrees until an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit is reached. Whisk together all ingredients for the sauce. Spoon over skewers, or serve on the side as a dipping sauce. BONUS - also great for dipping potatoe wedges, or as a base for potato/pasta salad! 

Serves 2-4

Ingredients

1 226g (8oz) Noble Premium Bison Ribeye Steak
1 head radicchio, sliced into wedges
1 fennel bulb, sliced into wedges (reserving the fronds for garnish)
1 red onion, peeled and thinly sliced
2 blood oranges, peeled and sliced 

For the dressing:
3 tbsp ( 45ml) olive oil
1 tbsp (15ml) white balsamic vinegar
1 tsp (5ml) white miso
Juice of half a blood orange 

Directions:

Preheat grill to 400-450 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly oil steak, and season liberally with salt and pepper. When slicing the radicchio and fennel, leave the core in to ensure the pieces stay intact while grilling. Grill the radicchio over direct heat for one minute per side. Carefully cut off core. Grill the fennel over direct heat for 2-3 minutes per side. Carefully cut off core. Set aside to cool. 

Grill the steak to your internal doneness temperature of choice - for medium rare, that’s 130-135 degrees Fahrenheit. Rest for 10 minutes, before thinly slicing. 

Combine all ingredients for the dressing in a small jar, and shake vigorously to combine. Resist adding extra salt - the miso is salty and does all the work for you! 

To assemble the salad, arrange radicchio, bison, fennel, red onion and oranges haphazardly on a plate. Top with fennel fronds, and dressing.

Roll dough on a floured surface into a big rectangle. Spread half the filling over the dough. Roll into a large log. Place seam side down. Place the two rolls in the freezer for 15 minutes. 

Cut each roll down the centre. Twist each roll over top of one another. Allow to rise for 1 1/2 hours. Combine ingredients for the syrup in a pan, and heat until sugar is dissolved. Bake the babka in a preheated 400 degree for 40-50 minutes. While cooling, pour the syrup evenly over the Babkas in the pans. After about 30 minutes, remove Babkas from pans and allow to cool completely.

These are the ultimate hand held snack - they’re crunchy, gooey, and satisfying. They’re comfort food at it’s finest and great for eating not the go, or paired with rice and smokey salsa for a savoury weeknight dinner. If you have the time, try your hand at making a tangy curtido to go along with them!

Ingredients
Pupusa Dough:
4 cups instant corn masa flour
2 tsp salt
3 cups cold water

Filling

1 cup mozzarella cheese
1 540ml can of red kidney beans 
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp chipotle chili powder 
1 tsp vegetable stock powder 
1/2 tsp black pepper 

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine ingredients for dough. It should look like a clay-like texture. Use a small bowl with water and a little oil to dip your hands into to keep the dough from sticking to your hands. In another bowl, roughly mash the kidney beans with a fork. Stir in all other ingredients and thoroughly mix. Take a golf ball sized portion of the dough roll into a ball, then flatten into an even round. Take about a tbsp of the bean mixture, and place in the centre of the round. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch until it’s completely sealed. Then, flatten out the ball between your hands until flat. Place on a greased cookie sheet, or preheated cast iron skillet with a little oil. Cook in a 400-425 grill or oven until golden brown on each side - about 2-4 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2-4 minutes.

3-4 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup corn starch  
2 cups cream

Top with sliced potatoes, cheese and some of the bacon. Add more sauce, and continue to layer until all ingredients are finished. Reserve some of the bacon to add to the top. Grill over indirect heat for one and a half hour until a knife inserted into the potatoes feel like they’re soft and fully cooked.
