Had some bear meat last night

Bison is excellent...even steaks. You can probably get some at your local meat store.

Seems I remember hearing thier closet animal relative is pig.

Nope, they are carnivores. Related to dogs, coons, weasels, cats, sea lions, and seals.

Did it taste a lil cinammon?

I was waiting for that!

I think they are omnivores.

I have shot both brown and silver bear, but I would never eat them. I'm pretty sure it would be detrimental to my health if I did.

Never had bear to eat. Probably the most exotic I've ever ate was some young beaver

I have not had the privilege of tasting any wild game. I sampled some poorly made deer sausage and thats it. I want to taste a bison burger though.

I'd pass on the bison burger... unless it's mixed with another meat, maybe? Bison is very very lean, kind of like venison. Therefore, IMO, it doesn't make a great burger. In fact, I had one once, in Boulder, CO. Restaurant called Turley's, the night my wife proposed (NYE 1999). The burger was HORRIBLE! The driest thing I've ever eaten... it was like... cardboard. Sawdust. Ugh. Too dry for a burger, IMO.

I've always heard the bison ribeyes are the bomb... never managed to find any at the local market, though. Going to have to try again this summer.

This.
