Bison Burger

Ever wonder what the best burger is? Is it Wagu, it probably is, but honestly its far out of most peoples price range, and isn’t so easy to find or afford, with out blowing your whole pay check on one meal, there is an alternative, and that is Bison, Bison is very regulated, and farmers are not allowed to do the same thing they do with cattle which means that there are no growth hormones’ or any other chemical, so bison is a lot better for you, along with the fact that it is very lean, so it one of the best tasting burgers you can get for your money hands down.

This is one reason you want a very high performance food processor, when Aimee and I want ground beef, we don’t buy ground beef, we buy steak, roast or other meats and grind it into ground beef.

Some times when you find Bison meat, its not ground for you, but rather steaks, or cubes, so if you want burgers you have to grind it yourself, and this is why having a good food processor is important, so you can make your own ground beef.

If you never had Bison before I urge you to take a moment and try this recipe as you won’t be disappointed, this is absolutely the best burger your ever going to eat.

Phase 1 Wheres the Beef

Take your bison meat and simply put it into the food processor, no spices at all, just pure meat, grind it up until its a consistency of ground beef.

Take the meat out and start forming them into patties, we like smash burgers so we just made Bison balls.

You want to leave this sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before you cook, in the mean time oil a frying pan up and heat it up so when your ready to cook its hot and waiting.

While we are waiting for the patties to come to room temperature we shall make some sauce.

Phase 2 Sauce Me!

In a bowl pour in a lot of mayo, (don’t worry you can save this for future use to.)

put in a small amount of apple cyder vinegar

Put in a bit of ketchup

Put in some mustard

I would put some dill pickles in the food processor and then put this in too.

And give it a good mix and make sure its all incorporated.

Phase 3 Cook the burgers

Fry up your burgers on the last flip put on a slice of good quality cheese, you took your time to make such a high quality burger you want to make sure your using good cheese, don’t cheap out here.

Phase 4 Putting it together

Ok, so its time to put this all together, grab your favorite bun and lets layer.

First we are going to put some lettuce then a bit of sauce.

Your burger, and if you want some more cheese, do her up.

More sauce, tomato, onion, and lettuce and finally the bun.

Thats it folks, your friends should be jelous you have the best burger around, and I promise you, if you serve this to your friends and family, they will absolutely think your the best cook in the world!

You can add some hot sauce to your burger sauce if you want, but personally I don’t think its the best idea in the world, to me it distracts from the flavor of the meat,

Service this with some corn and some homemade French fries!

I hope you enjoy this, drop me a line if you have made this, let me know what you think!

Mac n Cheese Casserole

Mac n Cheese Casserole is a great meal, very simple fast and easy, it tastes great and it is a different meal that should please and fill you!

Mac n Cheese is great on its own, and adding to it can be wonderful!

Phase 1 Noodles

Cook your bag and choice of noodles as directed on the package, we like using elbow macaroni!

Phase 2 Ground Beef

For the beef you can use steak or any other type of pork, but then again you can use any type of pork if you want, but you can also use ground meat as well, if you don’t have a food processor then just buy it already ground, I find by choosing your meat to make into ground meat you have a much better quality and all, so it will be more rewarding.

Take your meat and grind it up in the food processor then put it in a oiled pan and add salt pepper and some spices you like and cook it until done.

Phase 3 Tomato Sauce

You can use 1 can of tomato sauce and 1 can of crushed tomatoes, salt pepper and any other sauce you may choose I also added 2 onions a whole garlic that was also put in the food processor mix it well and cook until its bubbling and your set, take it off the burner.

Phase 4 Mix 1

Take a baking pan you can cook with, maybe like a cake pan, and start by putting your cooked and drained noodles and line the bottom with that, and then the meat and then your tomato sauce you just cooked, and mix it all up good, were almost done folks.

Phase 5 Cheese Sauce

Take a frying pan and cut up some butter and a bit of oil so the butter doesnt burn, once the butter is melted, take a half a cup of flour and stir it well so there are no clumps, and this is very important no one wants to bite into a meal and taste clumps of flour, then add 1 and a half cup of milk mix it well, then start adding 2 types of cheese, bit by bit until the cheese is melted in keep stirring so nothing burns once thats finished were very close.

Phase 6 Mix 2 The Final Mix

Now lets take the cheese sauce and pour it on top of the casserole , and now…

Phase 7 Baking

Now make sure your oven is preheated for 375, then bake for 20 minutes, once the 20 minutes is over, your done, but let it set for 10 to 20 min, and your done!

I hope you enjoy this awesome dish.
