Bison Zucchini Burgers Recipes

BLUE CHEESE & BUTTER BISON BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix together butter and blue cheese. Shape into a 2-inch diameter log and wrap in wax paper. I like to make this and keep one in the freezer packaged in a protective re-sealable bag.
• Mix bison with scallions, salt, pepper, and thyme in a large bowl. Divide into four even pieces and roll into balls.
• Slice a 4x1/2 inch discs of the blue cheese and butter mixture. Place 1 disc in the center of each bison ball, and shape into burgers.
• Season the outsides of each burger with additional black pepper if desired.
• Grill burgers to desired doneness, being careful not to flatten and cause the juices / flavor to ooze out.
• Serve with your favorite rolls, condiments, and the tomato, onion, and bacon.

BISON BURGER

Steps:

• Make three burger patties per pound of ground bison. Coat the burgers, on both sides with olive oil spray to help form a crust; this keeps the juices in the burger. Sprinkle patties with our special High Plains Bison seasoning blend.
• Using a griddle, preheat to 550° F before cooking. We suggest using a laser thermometer to test the temperature. Place the bison burgers on the griddle for 4 minutes on the first side. Flip the burgers and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Check the internal temperature using a food thermometer to make sure the burger is at 135-140° F degrees.
• Finally take the bison burgers off the grill and let them rest for several minutes before eating. Enjoy!

ZUCCHINI BURGERS

Steps:

• In a sieve or colander, drain zucchini, squeezing to remove excess liquid. Pat dry. In a small bowl, combine the zucchini, onion, bread crumbs, eggs, salt and cayenne. Gently stir in chopped egg whites., Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Drop batter by scant 2/3 cupfuls into oil; press lightly to flatten. Fry in batches until golden brown on both sides, using remaining oil as needed., Serve on buns with lettuce, tomato and onion.
