Gorgonzola and Sun-Dried Tomato Bison Burgers

Serves 6

The combination of flavorful bison meat, creamy Gorgonzola and rich sun-dried tomatoes is sure to wow a crowd. Serve these burgers on buns with lettuce, red onion and tomatoes.

Ingredients

4 ounces Gorgonzola, crumbled 

3 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes in oil 

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 

1/4 teaspoon sea salt 

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 

1 1/2 pounds ground bison meat

Method

Combine Gorgonzola, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add ground bison and use your hands or two forks to lightly combine all ingredients, taking care not to overwork. Add a tablespoon or two of water if needed to hold together. With dampened hands, form mixture into 6 patties of even thickness. Place patties on a baking sheet, cover loosely and refrigerate for at least an hour. 



Preheat grill or broiler. Cook burgers about 4 minutes per side to desired doneness, turning carefully with a spatula halfway through.
