How to Make Buffalo Burgers
- In a medium bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground buffalo, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1/2 cup finely chopped mushrooms, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
- Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
- Season generously with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon lemon pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Form the mixture into 4 thick patties, almost meatball-shaped. The thicker the patties, the juicier the burgers!
- Soak 1/2 cup hickory or mesquite wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Add soaked wood chips to smoker box or directly to the hot coals (if using a charcoal grill).
- Place patties on the preheated grill. Cook for 8 minutes per side, or until desired internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) is reached.
- During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty.
- Carefully remove burgers from grill.
- Serve on toasted buns with your favorite toppings such as tomato slices, pickles, lettuce, mustard, and ketchup.
- Enjoy the delicious smoky flavor of your gourmet buffalo burgers!
