Buffalo Sliders

In a bowl combine bison, onion, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix well. If mixture appears too dry, add some cold water. Form 10 equal-sized slider patties using a measuring tablespoon, about 4 tablespoons for each patty. Place them on a sheet of parchment paper. (You can refrigerate patties wrapped in plastic wrap for up to 2 days.)

In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once skillet is hot, saute onions until soft.

Preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat. Make sure grill is clean. Grill burgers for 1-2 minutes per side, depending on desired doneness. (Grilling time depends on the kind of grill used, size of burger patties and climate.) Alternately you can cook them inside on a griddle over medium-high heat. Remove from grill once done. Add cheese on top of each mini burger, right after you remove them from the grill, so it can melt.

Lightly toast slider buns and assemble the burgers, adding lettuce, sautéed onion, mustard, ketchup and mayo and any additional topping of your choice.
