food Burgers? Hell Yeah!!

Dinner tonight. Bison burgers. Sous vide bison burgers, cooked to 132°F, then seared for that tasty crust on the cast iron griddle. Dear Hubby likes his burger sort of California style. Me, I like to taste the meat, so I usually go with mayo and a lot of freshly ground black pepper, Alton Brown-style.

Here are the 8-ounce patties going for a swim. To add some more flavor, I mixed about a quarter cup of grated yellow onion, a couple of shakes of Worcestershire, S&P and a good dose of Aleppo flakes in the meat before forming the patties.

Brioche buns grilled in butter waiting to be topped with the patties. Hubby gets mayo, cheddar, bacon, tomato & lettuce. I'm going plain Jane with the mayo & pepper.

Perfect medium. Juicy. Beefy. Just about the only way to cook a bison burger past rare without turning it into dust.

Thanks!  I was shopping in an Aldi the other day and grabbed one of their 1 pound packages of ground bison.  I've been trying to balance my macros and it's been tough getting enough protein without packing in the fat, too.  Bison is a perfect fit of high protein, low fat and low carb.  Sous vide solves the problem of cooking ground meat long enough to pasturize it but still keeping it rare, medium rare, or medium without drying it out.  I would have fired up the Searz-All for the GBD (golden brown and dee-li-cious) crust, but was going to toast the rolls on the griddle anyway so just seared them on it.
 
Some prep

Yes homemade slaw.
 
Semi-homemade beans. 2 cans plain baked beans (bland organic brand), dump out half the liquid, add dijon, Knob Creek Smoked Maple Bourbon (I don't drink this stuff but it's great for cooking), maple syrup, jalapenos, shallots, salt, pepper, spice, pepper powder, whatever u want, just taste it... then foil, slap on grill indirect an hour, bubbling good!
 
That's teriyaki onions on the salmon. In the pic, marinating before grill-pouching in foil.

I bet ranch packets would work well as the spice! And some pepper powder.
 
Olive oil and seasoning, grill it, afterward, hit it with mayo like Mexican corn, and you get that complete ranch dressing effect. Roll it in cotija possibly... boom!
