Our 100% Natural Buffalo Meat
All our Smokies, Sausages, Pepperoni, and ground buffalo are made from minimum 90% lean trim: no additional fat, MSG, or other by-products are ever added like in other store bought brands. This makes Buffalo the ideal meat for anyone concerned about what is going into their meat and into their mouth.
All our meat is government inspected and sold frozen in individually vacuum packed clear bags so you can see the quality you are paying for while sealing in the freshness. With consumers demanding better quality and leaner cuts of meat, Buffalo is the ideal alternative.
