Insert larding strips at 2" intervals all over the meat. Put in crock or ceramic or glass bowl and pour marinade over. Let stand, covered, in a cool place for 1 or 2 days, turning meat every few hours so all surfaces are permeated. Remove meat and reserve marinade. Wipe meat dry with paper towels. Heat lard in large deep skillet or heavy pot and brown meat all over. Sprinkle with the flour and add stock to cover. Add 2 cups of the marinade and the tomato paste and cook, covered, over medium heat for about 1 hour or until meat is tender. Remove meat to heated platter and keep warm. Skim fat from pot and strain juices into saucepan. Thicken with the flour-marinade if necessary. Slice meat and pour some of gravy over it; serve remaining gravy in a sauceboat. Serves 10-12.

BUFFALO BURGERS
	1 lb. Ground buffalo 1/4 ts Pepper 1 ts Worcestershire sauce 4 ts Ketchup 1 ts Salt 1 ts Mustard 2 ts Horseradish
The beauty of this recipe is that accurate measurements can go out the window. Add more or less of the spicing that you like. Toss it all in and mix it up. Patty up and grill. Serve like a regular hamburger. Tip: If you have a grill that tells the temperature, keep it down! Or let the coals die down some. Don't put lean buffalo meat in the flame. (Buffalo is a lean red meat and is some what dry so you have to cook it slowly to keep the juices in.)
