This bacon cheeseburger is truly epic. Made with bison, it's lean, flavourful and pairs perfectly with rich and smoky bacon. Melty white cheddar and zesty mayo take it over the top.

Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce.
- Remove any brown spots from potatoes, then cut potatoes into 1/2-inch wedges.
- To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add potatoes, half the Montreal Spice Blend and 1 tbsp oil. (NOTE: For 4 servings, use 2 baking sheets, with one-quarter of the Montreal Spice Blend and 1 tbsp oil per sheet.)
- Season with salt, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven 24-26 min, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden. (NOTE: For 4 servings, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
- Meanwhile, halve bacon strips crosswise.
- Arrange on a foil-lined baking sheet. (TIP: For easy clean-up, leave foil overhanging on all sides!)
- Roast bacon in the top of the oven 8-10 min, until crispy.**
- Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Meanwhile, peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
- When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then onions. Cook 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened.
- Add balsamic glaze and season with salt. Cook 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until dark golden.
- Remove from heat. Transfer caramelized onions to a small bowl.
- Carefully rinse and wipe the pan clean.
- In a medium bowl, combine bison, breadcrumbs and remaining Montreal Spice Blend .
- Form mixture into 2 (4) 4-inch-wide patties.
- Reheat the same pan over medium.
- When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then patties. Pan-fry 4-5 min per side, until cooked through.**
- Sprinkle cheese over patties. Cover and set aside, off heat, to melt cheese.
- Meanwhile, halve buns.
- Arrange directly on the top rack of the oven, cut-side up. Toast 3-5 min, until golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on buns so they don't burn!)
- To another small bowl, add mayo and mustard . Season with pepper, then stir to combine.
- Divide caramelized onions between top buns.
- Spread some zesty mayo on bottom buns, then stack with patties, arugula and spinach mix and bacon. Close with top buns.
- Divide burgers and potato wedges between plates.
- Serve remaining zesty mayo on the side for dipping.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The bison burgers earned widespread praise for their juicy, well-seasoned flavour, with the balsamic caramelized onions and mustard-mayo sauce standing out as highlights. Some reviewers found the Montreal spice blend overpowering on the potatoes; using less helps the bison shine.
- Ease of prep: Most reviewers found the recipe straightforward, though several noted it takes closer to an hour rather than the suggested time, so plan accordingly.
- Suggestions: Add an egg to the burger mixture to help bind the patties and keep them moist, as several reviewers found bison on its own can cook up dry. Some also recommend pressing the patties wider before cooking, as they shrink during pan-frying.
- Leftovers: Leftover potato wedges keep well and reheat nicely the next day; one reviewer also noted the assembled burger held up well for lunch.
- Bun: Several reviewers found the buns too thick or dense; toasting them well and pressing them lightly can improve the texture and ratio to the patty.
