Grilled Horseradish-Stuffed Bison Burgers

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.

For Z3 (ZReboot), melt a nice hunk of your favorite cheese on top. On Z3, you can also have a bigger burger.

Servings: Serves 2

Ingredients:

• 8 oz of ground bison (or sirloin)
• 1 Tbl of horseradish (fresh, not in a jar)
• 1 cup of greens (in this dish I used baby romaine)
• a drizzle of balsamic reduction
• 1 cup of celery bits
• ½ cup of red onion, diced
• 2 slices of tomato

Instructions:

Mix the bison and the horseradish and make your patties. I usually do this with a lot of burger when I get home from the grocery store. I mix, make patties and store them in individual baggies in the freezer. Then I take them out and thaw and grill.

Lightly grill your grill pan (or heat up the grill outside). Sear the first side of your burgers on medium high for about 2 minutes. Then turn, and grate sea salt on the top of the burgers. Turn the temperature to medium and cook the burgers to your liking. Don’t mess with them or they get tougher. So don’t be squishing them down or flipping back and forth. Just let it cook and then check by cutting into it a bit. Bison tastes great cooked to medium but some like their burgers cooked more (my husband included).

Put the greens on a plate. Drizzle with some of your balsamic reduction or a bit of a dressing you’ve made. Top with your cooked burger and then scatter the celery bits and red onion around the top and sides. Place the tomato on the side and sit down to eat. YUM.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
