Bison Burgers vs. Hamburgers
Beef used in hamburgers comes from cattle whereas bison meat comes from bison/buffalo. Both bison and beef are a good source of vitamins like zinc, iron and loaded with protein as long as you get lean cuts.
However, beef is higher in calories and fat compared to ground bison. I like bison because most of the bison sold in the United States is raised without antibiotics and hormones, making it more sustainable. Also, the fact that it has way less fat is definitely a win for me!

Are Bison Burgers Good?
Short answer… YES!! I honestly like them so much more than regular burgers because they are still very juicy and full of flavor, but you don’t feel like crap after. I am not sure about you, but I do not feel my best afterward when I eat a burger.
Where to Buy Bison
I buy Costco's ground bison because you can get 2 packs for under $15.
How to Cook Bison Burgers in Cast-Iron Skillet
Personally, I like burgers better when they are cooked in a cast-iron skillet rather than on the grill. I feel like they are juicier and hold a lot more flavor. But, if you prefer to grill your burgers, then go right ahead! If you are pan-searing them, all you need to do is cook them on each side for about 3–5 minutes in butter. Make sure they are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of at least 140 degrees F.
