Elk Burger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Elk Patty

    In a large bowl, mix together the ground elk meat, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burgers

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked elk patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, pickles, and your choice of ketchup and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
