Buffalo burgers, no joke! "Montana had been left to the Indians until gold and copper mining swept the Western frontier and the Rockies...In the heyday of fur trading, Montana was inhabited by millions of buffalo...Hunters frequently killed buffalo for the fur and left the meat...Milk cows were grought into Montana in 1833, and by the 1850s missionaries had brought a few beef cattle... Sheep came into the Montana territory at about the same time as the railroads...In the early 1900s there was a shift in Montana's agriculture from livestock to wheat farming. Wheat has now become the state's top agricultural crop...The various ethnic groups who settled in Montana brought their native recipes with them. Many Russians became wheat farmers in Montana. They retained their traditional foods, such as beet soup and a cheese tart called Vatroushki...For company there was a pudding of Montana cherries, bread crumbs, and cinnamon or a pie called Smettanick, which had a filling of cherry jam, almonds, and sour cream...The Croatians and Slavs settled Butte, Great Falls, and Anaconda...In the Scandinavian settlements of Montana a special porridge with heavy cream was served at Christmas...The Irish celebrated Easter by preparing a dish called Golden Bread, which consists of thick slices of homemade white bread dipped in egg and fried in butter...The Scots enjoyed scones...Montana's cuisine is also based on ingredients indegenous to the state. White honey...is spread on huckleberry bread...In the hunting season many dishes center around elk, moose, and deer." ---Taste of the States: A Food History of America, Hilde Gabriel Lee [Howell Press:Charlottesville VA] 1992
