Bison is a shockingly healthy and flavorful meat. I've actually grown to like it in burgers better than beef, if done the right way....too bad I like to add a lot of additional fat.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter, softened
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1 lb ground buffalo meat
4 scallions, chopped
2 teaspoons thyme, fresh
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1 tomato, sliced
1 white onion, sliced
4 slices bacon, cut in half

Directions

1
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.
2
Mix bison with scallions, salt, pepper, and thyme in a large bowl. Divide into four even pieces and roll into balls.
3
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.
4
Season the outsides of each burger with additional black pepper if desired.
5
Grill burgers to desired doneness, being careful not to flatten and cause the juices / flavor to ooze out.
6
Serve with your favorite rolls, condiments, and the tomato, onion, and bacon.
