Bacon Burgers
Friday, April 8, 2011 | Eddy Cameron Concept: Jessica / Execution: Eddy
- 1 lb of ground buffalo meat (or very lean ground beef 4% fat)
- 1/2 cup of ground bacon uncooked (ends and pieces ground are just fine)
- Burger buns
- Toppings: tomato, lettuce, mustard, ketchup, cheese
Combined your ground meats together and mix to insure the bacon is mixed evenly throughout the ground bison/beef. Form your burger patties to about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. Grill or pan sear your burgers to your preferred doneness. We prefer medium rare. Just slightly pink in the middle. Add your cheese near the end to melt it a bit, if adding cheese.
You will find a bacon flavored burger with an even amount of fat because you used a lean base meat and the fat comes from the bacon. A very bacony burger!

That sounds delicious. I might have to buy a BBQ for my rental house just to make those!!! Can I stuff em with blue cheese as well!
You absolutely can. In fact we did that and just need to work up the recipe. 2/3 lean ground beef topped with blue cheese topped with coarse chopped bacon...it was absolutely divine. I'll let you know when it's posted. Ed
