Venison Burgers

"A co-worker of my son gave us some freshly-killed venison earlier this year. I had sectioned it and frozen it. I had some I had marked 'for grind' that I wanted to use. My husband and son raved about these delicious burgers!"

Burgers:
  • 1 1/2 pounds venison meat, cut into 1-inch chunks, partially frozen
  • 3/4 pound fatty pork butt, cut into 1-inch chunks, partially frozen
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups diced onion
  • 1 cup diced button mushrooms
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper

Sauce:

Sandwich Fixings:
  • 6 teaspoons softened butter, or as needed
  • 6 hamburger buns, split
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 12 slices pepper Jack cheese
  • 6 (1/4 inch thick) slices tomato
To Make:
1. Grind partially frozen venison meat and pork butt together using a meat grinder or food processor; transfer to a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
   
2. Heat unsalted butter in a skillet over medium-low heat; cook and stir onion, mushrooms, and 1 pinch salt in the melted butter until onion is soft and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.
   
3. Gently mix ground venison-pork mixture, onion mixture, yogurt, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper together in a bowl until just combined. Form into 6 patties and arrange on a large plate. Cover plate with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
   
4. Mix mayonnaise, steak sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and lime juice together in a bowl until smooth. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving time.
   
5. Preheat oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
   
6. Spread 1/2 teaspoon butter onto the inside of each split bun.
   
7. Heat a non-stick pan over low heat; cook buns, buttered sides down, in the heated pan until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer buns to a baking sheet and keep warm in the preheated oven.
   
8. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat; cook burgers, sprinkling each side with a pinch of salt, in the hot skillet until your desired degree of doneness is reached, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
   
9. Top each burger with a tomato slice and two slices pepper Jack cheese. Remove skillet from heat and cover pan until cheese is slightly melted, about 5 minutes. Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons of sauce onto the inside of each bun bottom. Add a cheese-tomato burger to each bun bottom; top each burger with bun top.
