Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Additional Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  1. 1 pound ground bison
  2. ½ cup panko bread crumbs
  3. 1 egg
  4. 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  5. 4 dashes hot sauce (such as Tabasco®)
  6. 1 pinch granulated garlic
  7. 1 pinch ground black pepper
  8. olive oil cooking spray
  9. 4 slices American cheese
  10. 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted

Instructions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  2. Mix bison, bread crumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic, and pepper together by hand in a large bowl; form into 4 patties. Place patties on a baking sheet. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate until chilled, about 15 minutes.
  3. Spray patties with cooking spray and cook on the preheated grill until hot and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Top each patty with a slice of cheese; continue cooking until cheese melts, about 2 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
  4. Sandwich patties between toasted bun halves.

I really like this recipe and didn’t change anything. Very tasty!

Not bad for a good burger. But just a heads up – you don’t chill meat. If you allow your meat to get cold it doesn’t cook properly. Try this again without adding more liquid. Use only egg whites and try corn meal as your binder. It is amazing.

Turned out moist and flavorful… I used very fine breadcrumbs instead of panko. Also, I added two slices of onion that I diced very tiny… mixed in with everything. I was saying, Mmmn, with every bite. Great recipe. PS we used a charcoal grill!! Makes all grilled food better!! (Gave us gas or propane..bleh..tee hee.) Thank you! Only photo was prior to grilling. Oopsie.

I added steak sauce instead of Worcestershire and grilled them on a George Foreman grill. Grilled both sides at once and done in 3 min total time.140 degrees

Won’t be making these again disintegrated on the grill

Does not compare to regular cow beef burgers, as you want fat to make a nice juicy burger. 80% ratio max, once you get to 90% it is just card board burger haha
Ricardo Carter
I topped them with sliced onions and sliced mushrooms that were sautéed in butter. Also cheese to taste. Hubby’s got one slice of cheese while mine got 2.

Delicious and simple! Using a thermometer helped us keep these on track using a stovetop grill pan. First time cooking ground bison meat and was pleased we didn’t mess it up. Will definitely use this recipe again.

Too much spice. Should have tried it with salt & pepper only to taste the flavor.

We used 2 lbs ground bison and the egg and seasonings, but skipped the bread crumbs. Also added in a chopped piece of bacon to the meat mixture (my husband got creative). These were outstanding.

Made these for a family cookout. They were wonderful. Love that they didn’t dry out on the grill. Everyone loved them, even the kids. We left out the hot sauce, but will probably add it next time.
Zachary Stewart
Absolutely delicious! Tasty, moist. Stayed together on the grill. Topped with shredded smoked Gouda. Amazingly wonderful.

I did not add quite as much panko as the recipe suggested after reading the reviews. The burgers were low in fat and very tasty. I let the patties rest in the refrigerator for an hour and they did not crumble. We will make again.

The flavor was good, but I had to add some salt, and it had way too much Panko. I would recommend trying 1/4 cup instead.
