Recipe for cooking buffalo meat over the stove:
- Prepare the buffalo meat by removing all tendons and excess fat, wash thoroughly, pat dry, and then slice the meat thinly lengthwise.
- Marinate the meat with salt, seasoning powder, Sichuan pepper, dried chili, and garlic for 15-30 minutes.

Ensure the buffalo meat is evenly soaked in the seasoning.
- Then, thread the meat onto skewers and grill over a smoky fire.
- To enhance the flavor, use tang cypress wood, dried orange peel, and sugar cane husks for smoking. Only hang the meat over the fire once the wood has turned to embers to avoid the smoke adhering to the meat.
- Hang the meat approximately 1 meter above the fire to prevent rapid drying and accumulation of dust.

Buffalo meat is skewered and dried at a distance from the flames.
- Continuously smoke for 12 to 15 hours until the meat achieves a beautiful red color and emits the distinctive aroma of stove-grilled meat.
- Afterwards, steam the meat until cooked through. Once cooked, continue smoking the meat over the stove until it reaches the desired dryness.

Secrets to making delicious stove-grilled buffalo meat
- To make delicious stove-grilled buffalo meat, first, you need to select the freshest pieces of meat. Additionally, cuts like rump, thigh, and tenderloin are ideal for stove grilling.
- Furthermore, the characteristic flavor of stove-grilled meat is attributed to Sichuan pepper. This spice is now widely available in markets or grocery stores, so anyone interested can purchase it for making stove-grilled buffalo meat (Sichuan pepper is an essential seasoning for stove-grilled buffalo meat).
- Especially, stove-grilled buffalo meat cannot go without smoke. Without smoke, stove-grilled meat is no longer... stove-grilled meat. However, not all types of wood are suitable to impart a distinct aroma to the meat.
- Additionally, stove-grilled meat must be patient and not rushed. The meat needs to dry and cook slowly with the gentle heat from red-hot charcoal. Excessive smoke can also spoil the meat.
- If you don't have a smoke stove at home, you can make one by stacking two cardboard boxes on top of each other and placing the meat on top. Place a bowl of charcoal or wood chips underneath. Avoid placing the charcoal too close to the boxes to prevent them from catching fire. Alternatively, you can wrap a large piece of tin around the boxes to make it less likely to catch fire.
- After steaming the meat until cooked, continue smoking it over the stove until it reaches the desired dryness. If you don't have a stove, you can also hang the meat over a makeshift stove for smoking initially.
- If tang cypress wood is not available, you can use charcoal purchased from the market, then add a little sugar cane husk or dried orange peel to the charcoal bowl to create smoke for smoking the meat.
