Notes
TO STORE. The cooked burgers stay fresh for 3 to 4 days when stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
TO FREEZE. You can also freeze cooked and cooled bison burgers for up to 3 months. Just let them thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
TO REHEAT. Warm the burgers in the microwave or a skillet over medium heat until they’re warmed through. Be careful not to cook them for too long, as bison can dry out very easily.
