Blackened buffalo steak

‎Buffalo ‎meat‬ is unbelievably lean and tasty, but because it is lean, it makes it tricky to cook. I prefer to cook it with Cajun ( creole ) ‪spice‬ mixes. Cover it with olive oil, sprinkle the spices and cook on hot grill until spices darken. 

It's called ‪ ‎blackened‬ style, when outside is a little bit burned on purpose, but the inside is nearly cooked. In this case it works. The burned spice mixture is actually very aromatic good luck
