who we are
The team behind Büffel Bill is led by our founder Manuel Ruess. The idea to found Büffel Bill came about after we read a newspaper article about the treatment of young male buffalo in the mozzarella industry. Because the young male animals do not produce milk for mozzarella production, they were either discarded immediately after birth or raised under adverse conditions without mother's milk or sufficient space. We knew that there had to be another way and that these gentle animals could be spared their fate. Therefore, it was our desire to make a contribution to sustainable and ethical meat consumption so that customers can get to know and appreciate water buffalo meat. During intensive research, we discovered that buffalo meat has been enjoyed in many parts of the world for centuries and is considered an absolute delicacy.Internationally respected experts in the catering industry confirmed the quality and unique taste of the buffalo meat several times.
Our vision is to introduce consumers to a conscious approach to meat consumption. In our production, we follow the "nose-to-tail" principle, striving to process the entire buffalo. We don't like to call them prime cuts, because in our opinion, every piece of meat is equally good if you know how to prepare it.
FOR COMPROMISED ENJOY
HIGHEST QUALITY STANDARDS
At Büffel Bill, we make no compromises when it comes to providing our customers with products of exceptional quality and flavor. At the same time, we attach great importance to contributing to sustainable meat consumption and ethical animal husbandry. Therefore, we pay particularly close attention to the rearing conditions of our partners.
Our Italian partners
For a long time, we searched for suitable partners to find the best, most natural, and highest-quality premium buffalo meat. We have now secured the world's most renowned buffalo breeders as exclusive partners in Germany, Italy, and Argentina. Our partners place the highest priority on treating and raising the buffalo in a stress-free manner and according to the highest standards. Our Italian buffalo are kept outdoors year-round along the Amalfi Coast in expansive meadows with access to watering holes. In the pastures, you can smell the salty, fresh air and feel the breeze from the nearby sea. The animals can feed on fresh grass and herbs, which is also reflected in the flavor of the buffalo meat. This makes Italian buffalo meat much more tender, aromatic, and flavorful.
Our German partners
With our German partners, we can also make a valuable contribution to organic farming. This allows us to graze areas that are unavailable to other animals and are also unsuitable for arable farming. The water buffalo of our regional partners live outdoors year-round, weather permitting. On the spacious pastures, they feed on fresh grass and herbs, and from autumn onwards on hay produced on the farm. This gives the buffalo meat a milder, slightly nutty flavor.
About our cattle
The cattle used in our delicacies, on the other hand, live in Memmingen in the Allgäu region, where you'll find pastures as far as the eye can see and drinking water directly from a beautiful stream. The pastures are filled not only with fresh grass and hay, but also with wildflowers and herbs, which give our heifers a unique flavor. The Allgäu heifer has a very tender and aromatic taste.
We are proud
We are proud to be able to offer our customers in the upscale gastronomy, hotel and delicatessen retail, but also gourmets at home, this culinary sensation of unprecedented quality and naturalness and to work under the highest ethical standards in order to contribute to sustainable meat consumption in the long term.
