Bison is braised with root vegetables and cedar branchlets in this one-pot recipe from Sean Sherman, author of The Sioux Chef's Indigenous Kitchen and chef-owner of Owamni restaurant in Minneapolis, MN.
"Braising bison can take a little longer, but you'll know it was worth it when it falls apart in your mouth. The cedar will give it a natural flavor that makes you feel like you are eating dinner while sitting on the forest floor." –Sean
