Ingredients
- 1 lb ground bison
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 slices cheddar cheese (optional)
- Lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles for topping
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine ground bison with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently until just combined.
- Divide mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty.
- Preheat grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 4-5 minutes per side for medium, or until desired doneness. If using cheese, add a slice during the last minute of cooking.
- Toast buns on the grill or in a skillet until lightly golden.
- Assemble burgers: place patty on bun bottom, add toppings, and cover with bun top.
Tips
- Handle bison meat minimally to keep burgers tender; do not overwork.
- Bison is lean; avoid overcooking to prevent dryness.
- Store leftover patties in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
