Ingredients
- 2 pounds of flavorful ground buffalo meat
- 2 teaspoons of savory salt
- A sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper to suit your taste buds
- Generous 1/2 cup of crumbled tangy blue cheese
- 8 whole wheat hamburger buns, perfectly split and toasted to golden perfection
- Luscious 1/2 cup of creamy mayonnaise
- 8 crisp and vibrant Bibb lettuce leaves
- 1/2 red onion, sliced into 1/2-inch rings
- 8 juicy slices of ripe tomato
Step 1
Prepare your outdoor grill, ensuring it's heated to a delightful medium-high temperature and greased ever so lightly. Begin by seasoning your ground buffalo meat with a sprinkle of salt and pepper before shaping them into 8 equal-sized balls. Using your thumb, create a little pocket in each ball, gently filling it with a spoonful of delectable blue cheese, then encase the cheese within the meat, forming them into patties.
Step 2
Grill your flavorful burgers on the prepped grill until they reach your preferred level of doneness, typically taking around 4 to 6 minutes per side for those who prefer their meat well-cooked. Check the internal temperature using a trusty instant-read thermometer, aiming for a reading of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C) at the patty's center.
Step 3
While the burgers sizzle away, take the opportunity to lightly toast your buns and spread a dollop of creamy mayonnaise on each. Assemble your burgers by placing a juicy patty on the bottom bun, followed by crisp lettuce leaves, a few rings of onion, and a fresh slice of tomato. Finally, complete your masterpiece by crowning it with the remaining bun. Enjoy your creation with loved ones and revel in the flavors that burst with every bite.
