Description
Bison have roamed the South Dakota prairie for millennia. Similar to beef, ground bison is leaner and makes an excellent burger, especially when mixed with fresh sage.

Directions
- Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for direct cooking over medium heat.
- In a large bowl, combine bison, sage, shallot, garlic, salt and pepper. Shape into 4 patties, 8 ounces each.
- Grill patties on a well-greased rack for 12 to 14 minutes or until internal temperature of patties reaches 160 degrees, turning once halfway through. During the last 2 minutes, top patties with tomato slices and cheese, and place buns, cut sides down, on grill directly over heat to toast. Remove from grill; let patties rest for 5 minutes.
- To serve, layer bun bottoms with lettuce, tomato-and-cheese topped patties and red onion. If desired, garnish with sage leaves. Add bun tops.
