One of many ways to enjoy the fantastic flavor of bison!
We loved this – Granted I didn’t make it exactly like the recipe because I couldn’t get all the ingredients. I had a pound of bison, but my grocery didn’t have any more. So I used a pound of Kobe ground beef and a pound of chopped portobellos (food processor chopping blade). Added a clove of minced garlic, cayenne, thyme, a little Worcestershire. Formed into 7 oz patties and let sit for little while to come to room temp and drain off some of the moisture from the mushrooms. Used carmelized onions on top of the cooked burgers. Really, my family said best burgers they ever had. Will definitely use this mushroom trick in the future. Yum
These are excellent and those were the first words out of my husbands mouth when he took his first bite too. Made this as written except that I used onion buns because they are our favorite. The recipe didn’t specify to chop the mushrooms but I did so that they would be more fully incorporated. These are 5 star all the way! Thanks ChristineM!
