6 slices hickory-smoked bacon
1/2 pound ground venison
1/2 pound lean ground beef
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
stout beer (such as Guinness®)
Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce
4 hamburger buns, split
These burgers were great. Put swiss cheese and mushrooms on top with the bacon and they were delicious!
If you leave a little bacon grease in the skillet when you cook the burgers, it makes them even better

Wow what a burger....you can spin this for any taste buds to enjoy. I added onions and celery and served with smoked mozzarella
Turned out well...you couldn't tell there was deer in them. We didn't have any Guiness so we used Yuengling. Worked out well, I think!
Weather was too nice...took these to the grill, FANTASTIC! I've made them both inside and out...either way, delicious! Smoked cheese, mushrooms and onions on top. PERFECTION!
I made these with half elk and half beef, they were amazing!!
Very good except I left out the beer. You could substitute apple juice if you wanted too.
I made these burgers tonight and my husband and I both loved them. I didn't have much ground beef so I used mostly venison. I added some Spike seasoning to the meat mixture as well as some Worcestershire sauce and beer. Otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. I'll definitely make these again.
