ELK BURGERS RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until browned and crispy. Pour bacon and grease into a heatproof bowl and allow to cool. Heat olive oil in skillet then add garlic and shallots. Cook and stir until softened, about 3 minutes; then add to bacon.
• Once cool, mix in venison, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, salt, pepper, and egg until evenly combined. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Shape the mixture into 6 patties and grill to desired doneness. Serve on toasted hamburger buns with your favorite toppings.

Steps:

• I use my bread machines to make the bread. Add 1 Tbsp yeast and 1 Tbsp sugar to 1 cup warm water and mix until dissolved. Place in the bread machine.
• Add beaten egg and butter.
• Add all of the dry ingredients.
• Set the bread maker to the dough setting and start the dough process. I have it set up so when I take one batch of bread dough out I start the next loaf right away. Then by the time the cabbage burgers come out of the oven and cool I can be working on the next batch.
• While dough in the bread machine, cook the ground meat, onions, garlic, garlic salt, salt, and pepper. Drain the meat and set aside.
• While you are browning the meat you should chop up the cabbage. I like medium-sized chunks of cabbage.
• Add cabbage to the meat mixture and check seasonings to taste. Add about a half cup of water.
• Let simmer on low until the cabbage is tender.
• As soon as everything is ready to go, roll out dough on a floured surface. Cut dough into 12 squares large enough for a heaping 1/2 cup of the cabbage mixture.
• Place 1/2 cup of filling in the center of one square of dough.
• Fold up the corners and "just a pinch" to seal them.
• Place them on a large cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes, till nice and golden brown.
• Lightly brush tops of rolls with butter.
• Serve right from the oven and freeze the rest if there is any. Enjoy!!!
• You can cut this down. I only do the majority of my baking in the winter so I do it this way and freeze them.
