A favorite recipe. You can also substitute beef, deer or other game meat if you do not have elk available. Let me know how you like them.
Ingredients:
1/2 C – diced onion
1 Tbsp – vegetable oil
1 – egg, whole large, beaten
1 tsp – dried thyme
1 tsp – dried rosemary
2 tsp – brown sugar
1/2 tsp – salt
1/4 tsp – pepper
2 tsp – Worcestershire
4 oz – crumbled blue cheese (optional)
2 pounds – ground elk (or other red meat)
Other items needed: Hamburger buns, mayo, mustard, catsup, lettuce, tomato, cheese and/or any of fixin’s that are your favorite on a grilled hamburger.
In large skillet, add vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat. Add onions and saute. Set them aside to cool. (we puree the onions after sauteing them and add them as below so the kids don’t notice them).
In a large mixing bowl, add the egg, thyme, rosemary, brown sugar, salt, pepper and Worcestershire. Mix thoroughly. Add mixture to ground meat and mix until well blended. After mixture is well blended, add blue cheese if desired. If you are questioning the blue cheese, TRY IT! You just might like it. If you don’t, leave it out next time.
Mold burger into bun size patties, grill until cooked through. Brown hamburger buns if desired. Serve hot with your favorite fixin’s!

Hello there. Thank you for stopping by my blog. I enjoy sharing my adventures with others. Enjoy the stories and please share your comments.
Thanks for the recipe! I’ll have to try it on our fresh deer meat from this past season.
Scott,
It seems I left the eggs out on the ingredients listing. I have added them in. Don’t forget them when you are making these great burgers!
can’t wait to try it..I take my Elk burger and mix it with Italian sausage and grill .
That sounds yummy also Jim. I’m going to give it a try.

Good one, will have to try. However I think you left the egg out of the recipe in the listings. But got it in the mixing part.
Thank you for letting me know! I’ve added them in… Much appreciated.
