Bison filet cook, and beer pairing!!

FATC1TY

Got ahold of some really good looking Bison filets the other night. Decided to pull them out and cook them this evening. I've had plenty of Bison before, but never  the filets for some reason. Ground, ribeyes, strips..but no filets.

Paired with some cast iron potatoes and onions in the BGE, and then followed with some haircot verts and the Bison filets. Cooked too 125* and pulled, a perfect medium rare, and man they were so tender. FORK tender at that. Hard to want to go back to beef I think!

For the beer guys, I paired it with a Allagash Midnight Brett, a limited released beer for them. Funky barnyard Brett notes with a slight lactic aroma and roasted finish. Was great with the steak!


Making dinner even better with a Red Brick 20th's Anniversary Imperial Stout aged in Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels.




Cheers!

That looks excellent, but I have to ask - do you eat that beer with a fork?

No?

I guess I always seem to forget alot of people still drink yellow fizzy water these days! It's not a thick beer just because it's dark.

It looks amazing all around!  

I like my beer a little "chewy".

Nice cook. I have found on my beer pairings I select a cold one and works just fine.
