A couple of weeks ago I found 1 lb packages of ground buffalo at my supermarket and decided to buy one. Tonight was the night to play around with it. I made jalapeno buffalo burgers and they were outstanding. Here is what I did: * Exported from MasterCook * Jalapeno Buffalo Burgers Recipe By : RisaG Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Chiles Main Dish Meat Quick Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 lb ground buffalo meat salt and pepper 1 jalapeno chile pepper -- sliced 4 slices red onion 4 slices Pepper Jack cheese 4 rolls -- large ones For burgers: In large bowl, combine buffalo meat, salt and pepper. Shape into 4 patties. Refrigerate until ready to cook. Preheat a cast iron skillet. Cut rolls in half (or pull apart). When the skillet is very hot, place burger patties on and cook until medium-rare (about 8 minutes per burger).* Cook 2 burgers at a time so you have some space in the pan to heat up 1/2 of the bun, at least. Or you can toast the buns. Place cheese on top of the burgers once you have cooked the flip side to the extent you want. Then put a cover on the pan and let the cheese melt. Remove burger to bottom bun. Top with jalapenos and onion. Place top of bun on burger. Serve with french fries, corn on the cob, or any other side dish you like with burgers. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NOTES : Risa's notes: * This was how much it took for me. Could be longer, for you, depending on how hot you get the skillet and how thick the burgers are. If you cannot get buffalo meat (I found it at my local Shoprite, unusual as that is), then use your favorite ground meat. Of course, they can be put on the charcoal or gas grills. YUMMY. ===== RisaG Risa's Food Service http://www.geocities.com/radiorlg Updated 6/06/03 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
