About


I love Bison for it's healthy, high protein, nutrient dense profile.  It has so much flavor for such a lean meat!  Blended with the chopped turkey bacon the burgers stay moist, healthy, lean and have even more flavor!  I serve them a few ways: on a whole grain bun with pickles, ketchup, light mayo maybe some mustard.  Wrapped in a tortilla is great too.  For  low-carb preferences  serve your Bison Bacon Burger over a huge bowl of steamed veggies and a side of salsa. If you can't find the Bison you can use organic ground turkey, chicken or beef instead.
