Smoky Bison Burger image

Bison (aka buffalo) meat is one of the healthiest proteins around. It has more Omega-3 fatty acids than even salmon and it's lower in fat and cholesterol than boneless, skinless chicken breast. The best part? It's absolutely delicious. Topped with a smoky sauce and dill pickles, this burger is a taste of the American West. Serve pinto beans, cheesy corn casserole or steak-cut fries alongside.

8 Ball Park® Hamburger Buns
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 pounds ground bison
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon garlic granules
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil , divided
1 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon molasses

2 teaspoons ground chipotle pepper, or more to taste

  • Whisk well and set aside.
  • To prepare burgers, mix the ground bison with seasonings in a large bowl.
  • Shape 8 patties of equal size and brush each with half of the olive oil.
  • In a large skillet, add reserved olive oil and heat until smoking over medium-high heat.

  • Remove to a warm platter and cover while you cook the remaining patties.
  • Keeping the skillet warm, brush the buns with olive oil and toast on either side for about 10 to 15 seconds.
  • Assemble burgers by placing cooked patties on bun bottoms, topping with smoky sauce and pickles, along with desired burger toppings.
