- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine ground ostrich, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
- Divide mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into 3/4-inch thick patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Cook patties for 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until internal temperature reaches 160°F.
- Let patties rest for 2 minutes. Serve on buns with desired toppings.
Tips
- Do not overcook; ostrich is very lean and can dry out quickly.
- Handle the meat minimally to keep burgers tender.
- Store uncooked patties in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
