Yes, but keep the grill heat moderate. Because bison lacks the heavy fat content of beef, it can dry out quickly over direct high-flame grilling.
Bison is typically lower in calories and fat than grain-fed beef, while offering higher concentrations of iron and B12.
Absolutely. You can shape the patties and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours before cooking.
