My bison burger was a rousing success! I defrosted the meat over night in the fridge, then mixed it with some scallions and shitake mushrooms. I added some freshly ground black pepper and sea salt, along with a couple of splashes of Worcestershire sauce.
I made a small patty and threw that bad boy on what we call the GFG (George Foreman Grill) for two minutes. I dressed it with tomato, brocolini sprouts, and a hearty slice of avocado on a half slice of whole wheat bread. It was marvelous - juicy, with a nice texture. I only wish I had thought ahead and made some baked sweet potato fries and had a cold crisp pickle.
I rounded off the meal with a large spinach salad (leaves eaten raw to maximize nutrients), but that's not really interesting.
I feel good about what I ate. I purchased from a top-quality local ranch that uses humane practices. Awesome! My next step is going to try some other bison cuts - hopefully they'll be just as tasty!
That looks good!
ReplyDeleteA friend brought over some ground yak (responsibly raised) and we made yak burgers. They were sooooo good.
Mmmmmm! Bison is delicious!
