Preparation
In a small bowl, mix softened butter (2 Tbsp) with minced garlic (1 clove), chopped herbs (1 tsp), and a pinch of salt. Chill until ready to use.
In a bowl, combine ground bison (1 lb), egg (1), garlic (1 clove), grated onion or onion powder, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and optional herbs. Mix just until combined—do not overwork.
Form into 3–4 patties.
Heat butter or tallow (1 Tbsp) in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear patties for 3–4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
Immediately top each hot patty with a dollop of garlic butter. Serve over lettuce leaves with optional toppings like avocado or tomato. Drizzle with olive oil (1 tsp) if desired.
