A little about the BBQ Bison Burger
Bison is an amazing meat. It is gamey, wild, hearty, flavorful and low in fat. This is the perfect meat for anyone who is looking to cut out the fat & grease from their diet.
Unlike beef burgers, bison burgers are less greasy which means they are easier to cook over live fire.
No worries about flare ups or grease fires! That is a fire cooks dream. Add some of the jalapeños on top of the burger to create some spicy. Balance all of that out with melty Havarti cheese and Smokehouse BBQ Sauce.
The BBQ Bison Burger is overall a well balanced meal with high quality meat, cheese and spices. It is a burger that you can serve to your friends and leave them in awe.
They will think that if was lean beef, but you will know that it was ground bison. So crush this burger and enjoy!
