Seventh Fire Burger

Directions

• Fire up your grill to medium high heat
• In a small saucepan place all the blueberry jam ingredients, except the lemon, over medium high heat; bring to a boil.
• Reduce to a glaze consistency; remove herb sprigs; season with lemon juice, salt and pepper and set aside.
• Grill bacon strips until crisp; drain on a paper towel, set aside.
• In a bowl, mix all the bison meat patty ingredients together and form into 4 patties.
• Place patties on a preheated grill; 2 min per side for medium rare or slightly longer to your liking (don’t overcook as bison is lean and cooks more quickly than beef)
• Place 2 slices of brie cheese on each patty.
• Spread sriracha mayo on top half of each bannock slice.
• Add the grilled bison patty on the bottom half; top each patty with blueberry jam and bacon, shallots then arugula and cover with the top half.

Bannock

• Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C)
• Mix dry ingredients into a big bowl. Add water or milk and add the oil. Mix all together until the batter becomes like bread dough, not sticky.
• Put flour on a table surface then roll the dough with your fists for about 2 minutes, like making a bread dough. Break into four balls and flatten in the palm of your hand to .5” (1.25 cm) thick. Make holes with a fork by poking it all around the dough from top to bottom.
• Lightly oil a cookie sheet, put the bannock onto the sheet and bake at 375 F (190 C) until it becomes golden brown, approx. 25 minutes. Spread butter or lard on the bannock when it comes out of the oven to keep it moist.
