Not sure if ground buffalo meat from the local butcher exactly counts as "wild game", but I couldn't find another place to put this. Here's my method for taking lean ground buffalo and making sure it doesn't dry out when making it into buffalo burgers on the grill.
Started with a slice of white bread, crust removed
Soaked briefly in milk
Cubed the bread into 1/4" to 1/2" pieces
Added the cubes to a bowl with the 1lb of ground buffalo
I added a little Weber gourmet burger seasoning
Mixed the bread and meat together, and formed them into good sized patties (not too thin)
Started the Weber kettle with some Royal Oak lump charcoal
Once the coals were going, I dumped them and added some pecan chips
A little "process lubricant". I find it helps loosen the arm that operates the grill spatula, for a more fluid turning motion.
Who am I kidding? I was thirsty and this is good beer.
Finished product with some White American cheese on a Kaiser roll. I cooked them a little further than I intended, but they were still plenty juicy.
Thanks for checking it out!
