INSTRUCTIONS
- Cut the bacon and the venison into chunks. These should be small enough to comfortably fit them into your meat grinder. If you donât have a meat grinder, you can find a great one here: https://cookspot.org/best-meat-grinder-for-deer/.
- Using a meat grinder, mix the bacon and venison. You should aim to have two-thirds of the mixture roughly ground, while the remaining third should be finely ground.
- Start preheating the grill, you should aim to be using high heat.
- Mold the mixture into burger patties. Try to avoid making them too firm, as this can make them tougher later.
- Prepare the grill, scraping off any excess food.
- Before adding the burgers, add a thin layer of salt. This will help the meat break down and enhance the flavor.
- Place them onto an open grill and cook for around 3 to 5 minutes, without flipping.
- Then, flip and cook the other side for around 3 to 5 minutes. We recommend using the Zulay Kitchen Tong Set for grill not to scratch the grillâs surface. After turning the burgers, sprinkle a little black pepper onto it.
- Repeat until all the patties are cooked.
- Once cooked, remove from the heat and leave to rest for a few minutes
- Cut open the bun and start preparing the burger. You can add whatever toppings you like. The most common ones are tomato, lettuce, cheese, and some kind of sauce.
- Serve the burgers.
