How to Make Grilled Venison Burgers
- In a large bowl, combine breadcrumbs, finely chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Gently add the ground venison to the bowl and mix thoroughly, being careful not to overmix.
- Form the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties. Make them about 3/4 inch thick and slightly larger than your buns to allow for shrinkage during cooking.
- (Optional) For easier cooking and to prevent sticking, place the patties on a plate lined with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until solid.
- Preheat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the hot skillet.
- Carefully place the frozen (or thawed) patties in the hot skillet. Frozen patties will take longer to cook.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes per side for frozen patties, or 2-3 minutes per side for thawed patties, until nicely browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Remove from skillet and let rest for a minute before placing on buns.
- Serve immediately on hamburger buns with your favorite toppings.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
