Buffalo meat, also known as buffen, is the meat of the water buffalo, a large bovid, raised for its milk and meat in many countries including India, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the Philippines, Bulgaria, Italy, Russia, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Australia and Egypt.
Buffalo meat is known by various names in different countries. In some places it is known as red beef, or buffen in India[1] and Nepal; in other countries, it is known as carabeef, a portmanteau of "carabao" and "beef", originally coined in Philippine English in the 1970s to distinguish the meat of water buffaloes.[2][3] Meat taken from a buffalo younger than 20 months is known as padwa in India, pado in Nepal and bansgosh in Pakistan. Buffalo calves are often referred to as buffalo broilers and brought up exclusively on milk for the purpose of being slaughtered young for meat.[4][5]
