layin on the smackdown Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Alright ladies and gentlemen, i may have posted this before, but i added a little somethin and the end result was the best dang venison, bacon jalepeno burger EVER!!! OK...before i moved back up near my dad (who ownes and operates a meat packing company) i processed my own deer. In doing this, i began farting around with grinding bacon with my ground venison and found that hickory smoked bacon really works out great. I use a 25/75 % ratio bacon to ground venision. I also package it in one pound (or close to it) packages. SO, here we go...the other night i decided to whip up a coupla burgers...but after a few beverages, and discovering a fresh jalepeno pepper in my refridgerator, i decided to get a little spunky with it. 1 LB ground bacon venison burger 1 decent size jalepeno pepper diced well 1/2 LB pepper jack cheese 1 large tomato sliced 1 head or whatever its called of iceberg lettuce your favorite mayo you do the rest... 1.) In a large bowl, mix your diced jalapeno pepper in with your ground bacon venison burger 2.) hand make 4 patties 3.) cook on grill to desired rareness or wellness 4.) Throw on one or two slices of pepper jack cheese per burger 5.) cook until melted load on the mayo, lettuce and tomato, and, well, you do the math. basically i ended up with 4 quarter pound venison bacon jalapeno burgers topped with lettuce tomato and mayo on a nice honey wheat bun...the sweet necture of heaven.:clown: Try this, and i promise, you will not be disappointed. dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I would like to try this but my 74 year old dad cannot eat the spicy stuff. Did you try it with just the bacon? How was that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't go wrong with bacon in the burger Joe. Adds flavor and juiciness that's perfect for grilling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layin on the smackdown Posted December 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 You can't go wrong with bacon in the burger Joe. Adds flavor and juiciness that's perfect for grilling. Yep, John nailed it...the thing that makes bacon better than any other type of pork filler is that you get the stickiness you need to keep the burger together, and you get that perfect kick of bacon... Regarding the spicey part...really you can hardley even tell its in there...one pepper per pound is just enough to give it a little zing...Try it out and you will see what i am talking about. I also leave out the center parts of the pepper and disgard as many seeds as possible. If you want to really spice it up, substitue the jalapeno with a habenero or two...I havent tried that yet, but i see myself giving it a whirl here sometime in the near future.
