DEVIOUS DINERS DEVILISHLY DELICIOUS SOUTHWEST BURGER



Devious Diners Devilishly Delicious Southwest Burger image

This burger is posted for the Zaar World Tour Burger Challenge 2007. In honor of my teammates, the awesome and outstanding Devilishly Devious Diners, I would dedicate this recipe to the friends I have made! I found that it was better to grill the bison burger on top of foil to ensure the burger stays together. The amounts used for the toppings on each burger would depend on the individual. I think these burgers would be outstanding with Bergy's recipe for Recipe #44436
