Preparation Steps
1
Divide the ground bison meat into four equal portions and gently form them into burger patties. Season generously on both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
2
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your preferred level of doneness.
3
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty, allowing it to melt beautifully.
4
Slice the burger buns and lightly toast them in a separate pan with a knob of butter until golden brown.
5
To assemble the burgers, spread mayonnaise and ketchup on the bottom bun. Add a crisp lettuce leaf, a slice of ripe tomato, a bison patty topped with melted cheese, and a few thinly sliced red onion rings. Crown it all with the top half of the bun.
6
Serve the bison burgers immediately alongside crispy fries or a fresh, vibrant salad.
