But for real, they really are the bomb. I know when people hear bison, they think it's going to be gross and gamey. But it's really not! It's delish. And a healthier alternative to beef.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 lb ground bison (or buffalo) meat
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
good pinch coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
your favorite barbecue sauce, for basting
For serving:
5 slices of pepper jack cheese
hamburger buns
shredded lettuce
barbecue sauce
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine ground bison with onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Divide meat mixture into 5 even sections and form into patties. When forming, gently press down your thumb in center to help keep it’s shape and avoid turning into a meatball on the grill.
Pre-heat your grill to medium high heat. Place burgers on grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side (for medium well – well done burgers). After first flip, brush cooked side liberally with your favorite barbecue sauce. Once burger is cooked through, quickly flip and brush other side before taking off the grill. Transfer to top rack of grill (or plate) and place a slice of pepper jack cheese on each burger.
For serving: Place each burger with cheese on your hamburger bun. Top with extra barbecue sauce (if desired), caramelized onions and shredded lettuce. Dig in.
Enjoy! XOXO
