Notes

Chef Tips:
  • If you don't have bison, ground beef also works really well for this recipe.
  • When cooking any burger never press down on the patty. This will not make the burger cook faster this will only create a dry burger, you are pressing out all the juices. Yes, you can have a juicy well-done burger!
  • This recipe can also easily be used to make meatballs for meal prep.
