Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Buffalo Burger

    In a bowl, mix the ground buffalo meat with salt and black pepper. Form into a patty.

  2. 2

    Cook the Burger

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Charbroil the buffalo patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Make the Peppercorn Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced shallots and sauté until translucent. Stir in the heavy cream, crushed peppercorns, and soy sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Place the cooked buffalo patty on the burger bun. Top with the peppercorn sauce and a slice of cheddar cheese. Serve immediately.
