Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 pinch ground black pepper
• 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 4 slices American cheese
• olive oil cooking spray
• 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
• 1 pound ground bison
• 1 pinch granulated garlic
• 4 dashes hot sauce (such as Tabasco®)
• 0.5 cup panko bread crumbs

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Mix bison, bread crumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic, and pepper together by hand in a large bowl; form into 4 patties. Place patties on a baking sheet. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate until chilled, about 15 minutes.

Step 3

Spray patties with cooking spray and cook on the preheated grill until hot and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Top each patty with a slice of cheese; continue cooking until cheese melts, about 2 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).

Step 4

Sandwich patties between toasted bun halves.
