Bison Smash Cheeseburger Tacos

Directions

• Preheat griddle to medium high heat (between 425-450°F).
• Use a sharp knife to divide the bison into 6 equal portions. Take a portion of the meat, and smear it on a tortilla in a thin, even layer. Use your finger tips to push the meat against the tortilla firmly, and bring it as close to the edge of the tortilla as possible. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Repeat with remaining portions of bison and tortillas.
• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the smash burger sauce and set aside.
• Lightly oil the griddle, and place the tortilla on the surface, with the bison side facing down. Use a burger press or griddle spatula to press the tortilla down. Flip after 3-4 minutes, once the bison has developed a nice brown crust on it. As soon as you flip it, place a slice of cheese on the meat. Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the tortilla is golden brown.
• Top the smash burger tacos with the sauce, and your favourite burger toppings!
