You do not need to brine buffalo meat unless it is a tough old bull but usually that is ground into burger.Cook low heat and slow, if you want poke a new holes in the roast and pour your beer or beef broth or lemon juice on the meat. Also you never cook a buffalo steak well done, always medium rare and it will be tender and a wonderful taste, salt if you may after it is cooked.

We had this for supper tonight, fork tender and delicious. The roast was well rinsed before cooking and came out not at all salty. I added egg noodles to complete the soup. The aroma of the herbs in the brine was so good that next time around I am thinking to adding some when cooking. Four rated this a five star recipe. An excellent brine for tenderizing a roast.

I just love to cook. I love to experiment with different recipes and love to get new ones. I love to share my recipes and love to have others taste things I make. I baked a lot while I was living at home...in high school.
I have babysat for over 33 years for different people I have cooked meals for them when it was needed. At one time, I babysat 2 children in my apartment and cooked dinner for them, their mom and their grandmother. I loved it. I took care of them for a couple of years.
The name AuntWoofieWoof has a very special meaning. I babysat for a family with 3 children in their home several years ago. One day the youngest boy came up to me and said "Aunt Woofie Woof......." and proceeded to say what he had to say. He called me that name for 2 days. When I asked him where he got the name from, his reply was "It was on a Dr Suess tape my momma got me at the Library". :lol: I thought it was so cute that I decided to use it on the internet. I babysat for that family for 8 years!!
That little boy is now in middle school. I still see him and his family every now and then. His mom and I keep in touch over the phone. I usually spend Thanksgiving Day with them. It is fun watching the kids grow into fine young adults. The oldest daughter, is in her early 20's, is working and has her own place. She is a beautiful young lady.
I am a Substitute Playground Supervisor and a Crossing Guard at an Elementary School. I love both jobs.
