These patties are equally delicious with half (or all) lean ground beef.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola oil
- 3/4 cup (175 mL) finely chopped onion
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup (50 mL) dry bread crumbs
- 2 tbsp (25 mL) beer or water
- 2 tbsp (25 mL) grainy mustard
- 1/2 tsp (2 mL) crumbled dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each salt and pepper
- 1 lb (500 g) ground bison
Steps
- In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, stirring often, until softened and golden, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix together egg, bread crumbs, beer, mustard, thyme, salt and pepper. Stir in onions, then bison; mix until just combined. Shape into four 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick patties. (Make-ahead: Store, separated by waxed paper, in airtight container and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Or freeze for up to 1 month; defrost in refrigerator.)
- Place patties on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside and digital thermometer inserted sideways into centre reads 160°F (71°C), about 10 minutes.
