Blue Cheese & Bacon Bison Burgers

This is a healthier alternative to your normal burger.

Well maybe not with the addition of bacon, but the bison meat is said to have less calories and fat than your normal ground beef. 

And it tastes about the same as the ground beef as well.

Just make sure you oil your grates before putting them on the grill.  I did not and lost valuable meat to the fiery pit below.

Blue Cheese & Bacon Bison Burgers

1/2 cup bread crumbs

Direcions
Beat the egg in a large bowl then add ground meat, bread crumbs, worcestershire sauce and garlic powder.  Combine ingredients then form 4-6 burgers depending on your preferred size.  Salt and pepper both sides of the patties.  Oil the grates of a grill on medium-high heat and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side.  Assemble burger with blue cheese and bacon on a toasted bun!
