Water Buffalo meat is comparable to beef in appearance and texture.

Not only is Water Buffalo meat lower in total fat and cholesterol, but the proportion of fat of the saturated type is also lower. Omega 3 fatty acids, which have been shown to be beneficial in lowering heart disease, are present in greater concentrations.

Water Buffalo meat is also richer in proteins compared to beef. In fact, the fat content of Water Buffalo Meat shines even when compared to roasted chicken breast!

The result of the favorable protein-to-fat content is a meat that is lower in calories and higher in vitamin and mineral content. A Healthier Red Meat!

The key to cooking Water Buffalo properly is LOW AND SLOW. Because of the low fat content Buffalo meat is best cooked rare to medium.
