The Bison Girl :: a lifestyle of good cooking, good eating & living well

Earlier this week, I showed off the delicious bison fajitas I made with leftover bison brisket . I promised to show another delicious meal I made from the same brisket as well. So here it is: a Hot Bison Brisket Sandwich -- even easier to make than the fajitas! I don't know what it is, but lately I've been really into hot sandwiches, particularly meaty ones. It's probably the lack of burgers in my life due to winter, I suppose. So, once I had the original meal of bison brisket with potatoes and gravy and the second meal of brisket fajitas, there was enough of the bison remaining for about 2 of these sandwiches. Although since it was just me this evening I only made one. You can see from the picture, this is no small sandwich and has quite a lot of meat on it. It's no skimpy sandwich, that's for sure. The assembling of these sandwiches is super easy. And it's one of those things, you can be free with and make your own! I'll put what I did in the...

For New Year's Eve, I finally got the chance to make my bison brisket that's been torturing me from my fridge for quite some time. We needed to use it for a photoshoot for my site, which is one of my favorite parts of my job, as that usually means I get a delicious, albeit, slightly cold dinner out of the deal. However, this brisket was a monster 5 lb. hunk of meat, which meant after we were done enjoying brisket, roasted potatoes and gravy I put most of the bison brisket back in the fridge to save for later... and thus, the plotting began! The following day, we were planning to have a couple extra people over to celebrate the New Year, so I thought I would use the leftover bison brisket to make a special meal: Bison Brisket fajitas. My first step was to take out the remaining brisket and cut it up. (Fun fact: There was so much brisket left over, I didn't even use all of it here. Stay tuned for another post.)
