Bison deserves a better reputation than “the leaner burger.”
Yes, it is lean.
Yes, it cooks quickly.
Yes, you should not treat it exactly like conventional beef.
But when you cook it right, bison brings a clean, rich flavor that makes a regular burger feel a little less exciting.
Quick tips:
Do not overcook it.
Medium-rare to medium is your friend.
Add fat-friendly toppings like cheese, aioli, or avocado.
Season simply and let the meat do the work.
Pull it before you think you need to.
Your grill can handle something better.
