Buffalo Burgers


I just recently discovered ground buffalo and it makes delicious hamburgers! it's a leaner meat and has a unique & tasty flavor. these are a joint effort by my husband and i - i prepare the patties, he grills them to perfection.

Steps


In a medium bowl mix the buffalo , egg , breadcrumbs , onions , mushrooms and garlic.
Mix until well blended.
Season to taste with salt , pepper and lemon pepper.
Form into hamburger patties.
Make the patties thick - almost in the shape of a meatball.
The thicker they are the juicier the burger will be.
Cook on the grill for 8 minutes on each side.
We usually soak hickory / mesquite chips and put those on the grill before the burgers for a nice smoked flavor.
You want to be careful to not overcook these as the buffalo can dry out quickly.
Place cheddar cheese on burgers when there is 1 minute left.
Put on buns and top with your favorite toppings - tomato , pickles , lettuce , mustard , ketchup.
Enjoy the unique flavor of buffalo.
