- Ready In:
- 26mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
8 4ounce burgers
- Serves:
- 8
ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 lbs lean ground venison (preferably from a doe)
- 1⁄2 cup egg substitute
- 3 tablespoons non-fat powdered milk
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1⁄2 cup fresh breadcrumb
- 1⁄2 cup chopped onion
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
directions
- In bowl, mix dry ingredients.
- Add venison and mix well.
- Add liquid ingredients and mix well with a fork, until bread crumbs are barely noticeable.
- On plastic wrap, form into 8 (4 ounce) patties, making them round and very flat-- like a fast-food burger.
- They can be cooked immediately, but I prefer to freeze them first.
- Place them on a large cookie sheet and freeze them several hours.
- Remove from freezer and place waxed paper between each burger as you stack them.
- I stack them in 2 1-quart freezer zip-lock bags.
- Preheat cast iron skillet to very hot.
- Cook frozen burgers until they are slightly charred on one side (about 3-4 minutes) and then turn and cook until the other side is slightly charred and burgers are medium-well.
- Do not overcook.
- Turn burner off and leave burgers in the pan while you put condiments on your hamburger bun.
- If cooking thawed burgers, cook about 2-3 minutes per side.

I've never made venison burgers before, chose this recipe. Had to make a few modifications (i.e. real egg whites, etc.) that were minor due to items on hand. Turned out great. Cooked on the charcoal grill. A little overdone, but that's the cook, not the recipe! My son loved the burger and that's enough proof for me. Thank you, will make again for sure.
