Smoked Cheddar and Mushroom Bison Burger w/ Baked Crinkle Fries

Dinner Tonight: Smoked Cheddar and Mushroom Bison Burger w/ Baked Crinkle Fries




In a span 24 hours here in the Ohio Valley it Thundered, Rained, Sleeted, Freezing Rain, and now it's Snowing. We have about 2" on the ground and they said we could expect anywhere from 6" to 8" with more coming over the weekend. Welcome to Ohio!

For dinner one of my favorites a Smoked Cheddar and Mushroom Bison Burger w/ Baked Crinkle Fries! Just love that Bison or Buffalo. I had ordered some Bison Products from http://www.buffalogal.com/. I had tried the Bison Top Sirloin about a week ago and tonight I'm trying the Buffalo Gal 1/3 Buffalo Patties. Their a really good looking plump Burger. I pan fried it on medium heat in Canola Oil about 4 minutes per side. The Burger came out moist and juicy with that fantastic Bison taste. I'll give it two thumbs up, excellent Bison Burger! I served it on a Healthy Life Whole Grain Bun topped with Sauteed Mushrooms and a slice of Borden Smoked Cheddar.


For a side I had a serving of Baked Ore Ida Crinkle Fries. For dessert/snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.

Suggested Cooking Tips:
Bison burger is lean (ranging from 93-96% lean) so when grilling or pan frying the burger - place it on medium heat - COVER. Allow the burger to do its cooking on one side. Don't poke, smash or continually flip the burger because you want to maintain all of the moisture and fat in the meat. When burger appears mostly cooked - flip one time and in 30-45 seconds it should be ready to serve. You might find that using a meat thermometer is helpful when first cooking the burger. It should reach 160 degrees internal temp.
