Our humanely field-harvested, grassfed bison meat is on a different level when it comes to the health and taste of our bison meat, the treatment of our animals, and the sustainability of our practices. (Learn more on our How It Works page.)

For the nuts and bolts of ordering a whole bison, here’s the process:

1. Place your deposit below.

2. Matt will then contact you via e-mail within a day or two to let you know when he expects to field-harvest your bison.

3. Free delivery in the greater Bozeman / Big Sky / Livingston area. Free shipping to anywhere in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Utah, Oregon, Washington, and Colorado. For all other states, we just ask to be reimbursed for the shipping fee (we don’t upcharge at all).)

4. Your balance due upon delivery will be $10.55 / lb. based on the hot hanging weight of your bison — minus your $2,750 deposit. (This amount varies from bison to bison, but it’s usually around $6,000 or so, and you receive around 350 - 425 lbs of bison meat.)

5. Separately, you’ll also be responsible for paying our butcher directly for your processing fee via an online invoice (approximately $700 - $800).

6. If you have any questions about any of this, please do not hesitate to e-mail or call Matt at info@northbridgerbison.com or 406-223-1950.

7. Fire up your grill or put your favorite cast iron skillet on the stove and get ready to enjoy the most delicious, healthy, responsibly sourced meat you’ve ever sunk your teeth into.

Includes

• Approximately 350 - 400 pounds of grassfed, field-harvested bison meat (the size of the bison varies from bison to bison). For questions about freezer space, please read our blog post on freezers.

• One-stop shopping – we take care of everything for you.

• A North Bridger Bison tote bag and two NBB stickers.

• A sprig of sagebrush from the ranch with a bit of bison hair wrapped around it. (Again, fierce rationalism – eat with your eyes wide open, be grateful for your food, and feel good about the meat you are eating and how it was raised and sourced.)

• NBB Cooking Tips.

• The knowledge and satisfaction that your bison is helping to preserve open space, provide wildlife habitat, and improve our food system.

• Many wonderful dinners to be shared with family and friends.

Customized Whole Bison

• Because the bison is yours, you can have it butchered any way you’d like.

• Following field-harvest, the head butcher at our meat processor (Ryan) will call you to talk through how you want your bison cut up.

• The sky’s the limit here — tomahawk ribeyes, whole tenderloin, burger patties, smoked bison brats, snack sticks, bison jerky, brisket, skirt steak, all of the other typical steaks and roasts — you can customize it to your tastes and what you like to eat.

• Our customers absolutely love the ability to customize their bison, and they love working with Ryan to come up with the plan for how their bison will be butchered.

• With a whole bison, the heart, liver, tongue, tail, cheeks, and marrow bones are also available (at no charge) if you’d like them.

• Finally, with a whole bison for local customers, you can also have the head and the hide of the bison if you’d like them. Following field-harvest, we will coordinate you picking them up at the ranch, and we can put you in touch with the local taxidermist we work with.
