Venison Bacon Burgers - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 slices bacon
    1 teaspoon minced garlic
    2 shallots, minced
    2 lbs ground venison
    1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
    1 egg, beaten
    6 hamburger buns
    salt and pepper
Preparation
    Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until brown and crispy. poor bacon drippings (reserve some to cook garlic and shallots in) and crumble the bacon and place in a large mixing bowl to let cool.
    Use reserves bacon drippings ans saute the garlic and shallots until softened. Add to the bacon and bacon drippings bowl.
    Once cooled, add the ground venison, Worcestershire, parsley, salt, pepper, and the beaten egg until evenly combined. Refrigerate about 20 minutes.
    Preheat outdoor grill for medium high heat.
    Shape into 6 patties ( this will make 6 LARGE patties) and grill until desired doneness. Serve on hamburger buns ( I usually brush my bun with some olive oil or butter on the inside of buns and grill them slightly on the grill.
    Serve with desired condiments and toppings ( grilled or sauted onions goes GREAT on these ! ). I usually top mine with cheese and more bacon and the onions. I always put a little condiment bar out with everything and let them pick it out.
