Ingredients
- 1 pound ground bison
- ½ cup panko bread crumbs
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4 dashes hot sauce (such as Tabasco®)
- 1 pinch granulated garlic
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- olive oil cooking spray
- 4 slices American cheese
- 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
Steps
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Combine bison, bread crumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic, and pepper in a large bowl. Form into 4 patties. Place patties on a baking sheet. Cover with foil and refrigerate until chilled, about 15 minutes.
- Spray patties with cooking spray. Cook on the preheated grill until hot and slightly pink in center, about 5 minutes per side. Top each patty with cheese slices. Continue cooking until cheese melts, about 2 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
- Sandwich patties between toasted bun halves and serve.
