Ingredients
  

  • 1 Artesano® Bakery Bun
  • ¼ pound ground bison
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1 butter lettuce leaf
  • 2 tomato slices
  • 1 slice Pepper Jack cheese
  • ½ avocado sliced
  • 2 tablespoons herbed mayonnaise

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your grill to medium heat.
  • Season the ground bison with salt and black pepper.
  • Form the meat into a burger patty slightly larger than the bun.
  • Grill for approximately 6–7 minutes per side for medium doneness, or cook to your preferred temperature.
  • During the last minute of cooking, place the Pepper Jack cheese on the burger so it melts.
  • Toast the bun lightly if desired.
  • Spread herbed mayonnaise on the top bun.
  • Layer the bottom bun with butter lettuce and tomato slices.
  • Place the grilled burger on top, followed by the melted cheese and sliced avocado.
  • Close the burger with the top bun and serve immediately. This Avocado Pepper Jack Bison Burger pairs wonderfully with fries, sweet potato wedges, or a fresh salad.

Notes

  • For a milder burger, replace Pepper Jack with Monterey Jack cheese.
  • Add crispy fried onions for extra texture.
  • Serve with grilled corn, potato salad, or coleslaw.
  • Double or triple the recipe for cookouts and parties.
