Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Ground Venison with fat added
  • 1 ½ tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 tbsp. Cold Butter
  • 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp. Salt

Instructions

  • Begin by moving your butter from the fridge to the freezer for about 30 minutes so that it gets nice and cold.
  • In a medium sized bowl, add all of your ingredients: ground venison meat, worcestershire sauce, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and egg. Quickly use a box grater or microplane to grate cold butter into the bowl.
  • Using your hands, gently mix together the ingredients to combine, but do not overmix. You want the mixture to just come together.
  • Form the deer burgers into patties and place to the side. This recipe will create around 4 standard size burgers.
  • Heat up a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the burgers into the pan. Allow to cook for 3-4 minutes before carefully flipping and cooking 3-4 minutes on the other side. The outside should half a nice golden brown crust to them, and the inside be just cooked through.
  • Remove burger patties from heat and place on a bun with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
