Bison is leaner than turkey with more iron than red meat per ounce. We have it once or twice a month, and it's great.
Since it's so lean, you cannot cook it at high temps - it's dries out - and you should never cook it more than medium rare on a grill. The hump does well if you braise it, again, very low temperatures, like 200 degrees, cook one hour per pound and then let it rest for a bit.
I've made pate out of bison liver -- and almost no one at the party realized it was bison liver, go figure -- cooked osso buco, made sliders, grilled strip steaks and made stock from roasted bones. I've got some "oxtails" in the freezer that I'm going to make soup with when I get a chance.
The people who say its too dry don't know how to prepare it correctly.
