Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground venison
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Whole wheat burger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 Red onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground venison, olive oil, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Gently mix the ingredients with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape each into a patty, about ¾-inch thick. Make a small indention with your thumb in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly and prevent puffing.
Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grate or skillet.
Cook the venison patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for well-done. Avoid pressing down on the patties to keep them juicy.
Remove the patties from the heat and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
While the burgers rest, lightly toast the whole wheat buns on the grill or skillet if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the venison patty. Top with tomato slices and red onion rings.
Finish with the top half of the bun. Serve immediately and enjoy your low fat juicy venison burgers!
