Directions
- Preheat oven to 500°.
Rinse the bison roast under cold water, pat dry with paper towels, and remove the netting.
- Cut the roast in half lengthwise and then cut each half into four pieces.
- In a heavy pot, add the four tablespoons of the seasoning and roll the meat pieces into the seasoning.
- Place the pot with the meat in the oven and roast at 500° for 15 minutes.
- Add the warmed liquids, cover the pot and reduce the heat to 375°. Braise for 1.5 hours, or until the meat is tender.
While the roast is braising, mix all of the salsa ingredients together in a bowl. Cover and leave at room temperature, or refrigerate.
To make cheese shells, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place desired amounts of cheese on the parchment in a circular, cup sized shape, or larger for taco sized shells.
Bake in the oven at 375° for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly, baked, and slightly browned around the edges.
Remove from the oven and gently remove the baked cheese from the parchment with a spatula. Place the melted cheese over the back side of the muffin tin and gently press around the sides to form the shells, or place over a wide spoon handle, balanced between two cups for a taco shaped shell. Repeat until desired number of shells are made.
