📝 Ingredients:

🥩 1 lb Elk Ridge Farm Ground Elk
🫒 2 tbsp olive oil (or your go-to high-heat cooking oil)
🧂 Salt & pepper to taste
🌶 Optional: garlic powder, smoked paprika, or your favourite seasoning blend
🥬 Lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, mustard, ketchup — your dream toppings
🍞 Fresh buns or crisp lettuce wraps

👉 Let’s Fire Up the Grill!

🔥 Step 1: Form the Patties
Shape elk meat into 2–4 firm patties (depending on size). Keep them tight to avoid breaking on the grill.

🔥 Step 2: Season to Taste
Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and optional spices like garlic powder or paprika for a flavour boost.

🔥 Step 3: Heat Things Up
Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high. Add a splash of oil to prevent sticking.

🔥 Step 4: Sear & Sizzle
Place patties on the grill. Cook for 3–4 minutes per side, flipping once a golden crust forms. Aim for an internal temp of 160°F (71°C).

🔥 Step 5: Rest & Assemble
Let burgers rest for a few minutes. Then load them up with your favourite toppings and enjoy on a toasted bun or lettuce wrap!

🍔 Pro Tips for Burger Bliss:

✅ Elk is lean—don’t overcook it! Medium to medium-well is perfect.
✅ Want more moisture? Top with cheese, caramelized onions, or a fried egg.
✅ Serve with sweet potato fries, grilled veggies, or a classic side salad.
