How to make it

---

• Pat the Buffalo Steak until reasonably dry,oil all sides,season with salt.
• Have a cast iron skillet smokin'...then sear the steak about two minutes per side.
• Remove the steaks to a platter...Mine has a Bison relief in the center,but any serving platter that one might have will suffice I reckon.
• Tent with foil,and allow to rest for a spell.
• When the steak is cooked to your likin' then deglaze the pan with one cup apple cider,two tablespoons apple cider vinegar,and tablespoon of whole grain mustard,simmer pan sauce until reduced to a glaze,spoon over Buffalo steak and serve immediately.
• Before you prepare your Buffalo Steak you might like something to have it accompanied by...
