Brenan:
If I were to cook for Michael Pollan, I would make him Bison Tenderloin, which I was happy to recently learn is all grass fed, and there is a large producer in Alberta hoping to bring them back. The wonderful thing about bison is they eat grass, but unlike cattle, they aren't greedy, and they only eat the tops of grass, this way the grass grows back twice as fast, and is twice as sustainable. I would wrap the tenderloin in wild boar bacon, since bison doesn't have much fat marbling. I would go foraging for wild mushrooms and hope to find some chantrelles! I would saute the mushrooms in garlic and butter. I would also serve it with ramps, roasted at a low temperature and then finished in the same pan the mushrooms were cooked in. i would deglaze the pan and finish it with some sort of demi.
I would have a very hard time not eating it all before it got to the table though.
