- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 3 hamburger buns
- 2 tbsp butter

Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl, add your ground bison. Add in Worcester sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic. Mix gently until combined. (Don't overmix as it will make the meat tough).
- Using your hands, divide meat into 3 even balls. Gently flatten into ~ 1 inch thick and shape into a circle. Set aside.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium until hot. Butter buns and toast until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Add patties to your hot cast iron. Cook until nicely seared, about 5 minutes, and then flip. Cook another minute. Then add top with cheese and cover the skillet with a lit of baking sheet. Remove when cheese is melted and internal temp is 130℉ - 135℉ (for medium rare).
- Serve immediately on toasted buns with desired toppings: mayo, mustard, onion, lettuce, pickles, and tomato.
