Bison is such a wonderful lean alternative to beef, but it still packs plenty of savory flavor. People love this recipe because it keeps the patties moist and juicy every single time without any fuss in the kitchen.

My best advice is to avoid overworking the meat when you shape your patties. Gently handling the mixture keeps the burgers light and prevents them from becoming tough once they hit the heat.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground bison
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • Optional toppings like lettuce, tomato, or cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the ground bison in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Add the chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the bowl.

  3. 3

    Use your hands to gently mix everything together until just combined, being careful not to pack the meat too tightly.

  4. 4

    Shape the mixture into four equal patties that are about an inch thick.

  5. 5

    Heat a grill or a large skillet over medium heat.

  6. 6

    Cook the patties for about four to five minutes per side until they are browned and reach your desired level of doneness.

  7. 7

    Remove the burgers from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before serving on buns with your favorite toppings.

💡 Tips

Serve these with a side of sweet potato fries or a crisp green salad for a balanced meal. If you have leftovers, store the cooked patties in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days and reheat them gently in a skillet.
