Spicy Buffalo Burgers

"I was attempting to make an entirely different dish when I came up with this recipe. I was trying to making a variation of the Romanian dish of Mici, but found out Buffalo didn't work...but it works splendidly for BURGERS! This recipe makes the burger patties fluffy, juicy, and insanely delicious!"

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 12
• Serves: 10

ingredients

• 1 lb ground buffalo meat
• 1 lb ground veal
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon coriander
• 1 teaspoon savory
• 1⁄2 cup sparkling water
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
• 1⁄2 jalapeno pepper, chopped
• 1⁄2 cup onion, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper

directions

1. Combine meats with garlic, jalapeno, onion and spices.
2. Add baking soda and mix well.
3. Slowly add sparkling water to the mix, building up a consistency close to a puree. This process will make the meat fluffy and juicy when you cook it.
4. Let meat sit for 1 hour in the refrigerator. (You can cook it right away but letting the meat sit will yield juicier burgers).
5. Shape meat into patties.
6. Grill for 6-10 minutes on each side
7. Serve hot off the grill (mustard is a great topping for this meat). Try Blue cheese dressing also!
