📝 Preparation Steps
1
Cut the red onion into ½-inch thick round slices, keeping the circles of the onion intact. Set aside.
medium red onion, peeled1
2
Combine the bison, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper a large bowl. Mix gently but thoroughly to combine. Divide the mixture into four even portions, about 8 ounces each. Pat together into a ball (but not too tightly), then press into a patty, about 1-inch thick.
3
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and swirl to coat the pan. Place the onion slices in the pan and cook for ⏱️ 3 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Place the bison patties in the skillet and sear until golden, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until the internal temperature of the burger reaches 130 to 135˚ (for medium-rare), 3 to ⏱️ 4 minutes more. If you like cheese on your burgers, add it during the last minute of cooking, then cover to melt.
5
Serve the burgers immediately on toasted buns with seared red onion rings, pickles, and BBQ sauce.
