COWAL DEER VENISON BURGERS

Cooking Cowal Deer Venison Burgers is quick and easy, and with their lean texture, they cook beautifully when done right. Here’s how to get the best results:

Ingredients

• Cowal Deer Venison Burgers
• Olive oil or butter
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Burger buns and your favorite toppings (cheese, lettuce, tomato, etc.)

Method

• Preparation:

  • Remove the burgers from the fridge 10-15 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
  • Lightly season the burgers with salt and pepper on both sides.

• Cooking:

• • Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 70°C (160°F)for a fully cooked burger. Avoid overcooking as venison is lean and can dry out quickly.
  • Brush the burgers lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  • Preheat your grill or BBQ to medium-high heat.
• Pan-Frying:
  • For extra flavor, you can add a pat of butter or a dash of Worcestershire sauce to the pan while cooking.
  • Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, pressing gently to ensure even cooking.
  • Add a small amount of olive oil or butter.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat.

• Resting:

  • Once cooked, remove the burgers from the heat and let them rest for 3-5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the burgers moist and tender.

• Serving:

  • Place the burgers on toasted buns and add your favorite toppings like cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, caramelized onions, or even cranberry sauce for a sweet twist.

Top Tips

• Since venison is leaner than beef, be careful not to overcook the burgers to keep them juicy.
• A meat thermometer is handy to check for doneness. The target temperature for medium is 70°C (160°F).
• For extra flavor, consider mixing herbs and spices like garlic, rosemary, or smoked paprika into the venison before forming the patties.
