Concocted for a neighborhood burger cook off. I used venison for the contest and enjoyed many favorable reviews. Serve with your choice of bun, toasted or not.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

¾ pound ground venison
¼ pound ground beef
6 fluid ounces cherry-flavored Kentucky bourbon whiskey (such as Evan Williams®), or more as desired
5 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup barbeque sauce
4 slices pepper Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Combine venison and ground beef together in a bowl. Add bourbon; set aside until liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Add bacon and black pepper; mix until thoroughly combined. Form into 4 equal-sized burger patties.
  • Cook burgers on preheated grill, basting with barbeque sauce throughout cooking, until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Top burgers with pepper jack cheese and cook until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.

I'm not a fan of cherry bourbon sauce, so I used a different sauce instead. The burgers were still good, but I think the cherry bourbon sauce would have been better.

I followed the recipe exactly and the burgers turned out dry and overcooked.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of cherries, but I'm glad I did! The cherry bourbon sauce is amazing and the burgers are juicy and flavorful.
