We were pleasantly surprised by this recipe. I used a small onion in place of the shallot. We agreed that the burgers could use more seasoning though, so next time we'll all some montreal steak seasoning like we do for our regular beef hamburgers.

This was my first ever attempt at venison and I was very happy with the result. Out of necessity, I made some adjustments to the recipe. I had to add about a pound of ground beef (80/20) to the pound of venison I was given. I soaked the venison in milk for several hours, just wanting to make sure these wouldn't be too gamey and touch. Instead they were moist and delicious.

Great recipe. I added 1 tablespoon of crushed red pepper, which gave the recipe a great kick.

We love venison but since we don't hunt it's not very often when we can enjoy this meat. This was a really good and easy recipe and the burgers were juicy. Thanks.

Awesome!! One of our new family favorites! My husband is a hunter, and we always use ground venison in recipes that calls for hamburger. Although we never used venison to make hamburgers (too dry) -- until now!! I am a picky eater and even I LOVE this recipe -- so tasty. I followed the recipe except that I substituted 2 small onions for the shallots and used dried parsley from a spice jar. I served them with them with homemade "Burger or Hot Dog Buns" from this site. We will be making these again and again! Thanks!

These burgers are AWESOME and the best I ever tasted either at home or in a restaurant. Followed the recipe as written and the results were perfect, just perfect. Really can't recommend them highly enough.

Followed the recipe exactly - no changes needed. One of the best burgers I've had of any type of meat. I've grilled them on a charcoal grill and stove top in a grill pan. The charcoal were better but both were fantastic.
