Wow! I made these with bison since my son is allergic to beef and wow, they are great! Super moist and tasty. I made them on the small side – about an inch in diameter, and found they were done with more like 8-9 minutes per side. I added 2 T of catsup to the meat for a little extra zest. We just ate them plain so I haven’t tried the sauce yet.
Excellent! We like them plain and with the sauce. They are addictive.
