Directions

Prep 10 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Warm a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the sliced and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle in the brown sugar and a couple pinches each of salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until deeply golden, about 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Pour in half of the beer, increase heat to medium, and cook until nearly evaporated. Stir in the Dijon mustard and set the onions aside.

  4. 4

    Preheat the grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, gently combine the bison, remaining beer, minced garlic, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Form into equal patties, handling the meat as little as possible.

  5. 5

    Grill the patties until cooked through to your liking, about 5 minutes per side, adjusting as needed based on thickness. Lightly toast the buns on the grill during the last minute.

  6. 6

    Place patties on toasted buns and top with barbecue sauce, the beer-caramelized onions, roasted red peppers, and spinach. Serve immediately.
