Print
Burgers: 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 cup onion, diced 1 egg, beaten 1 teaspoon dried rosemary 1 teaspoon dried thyme 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce 2 teaspoons brown sugar ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon black pepper 1 pound ground buffalo meat 4 hamburger buns, toasted lettuce and tomato slices for garnish Sauce: ¼ cup BBQ sauce ¼ ketchup ¼ cup mayonnaise Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until softened; set aside to cool. In a large bowl, combine egg, rosemary, thyme, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Mix in cooled onion and buffalo meat. Shape mixture into four ½-inch thick patties. Chill for up to 6 hours. When ready to cook, preheat an oiled grill to medium-high heat. Cook patties for about 5 minutes on each side. Combine BBQ sauce, ketchup, and mayonnaise to make sauce. Spread 2 tablespoons sauce on each bun. Place patties on buns and garnish with lettuce and tomato. Serve remaining sauce on side for dipping, if desired. For an additional tasty topping, sauté 1 onion, sliced thinly into rings, in 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons Marsala wine for 10 to 15 minutes or until caramelized. Serve with burgers. Yields: 4 burgers. Recipe adapted from Colorado Classique POSTED AT 12:00 AM
