Elk Burger with Kielbasa

  • 4 kielbasa sasauge links
  • 2 pounds ground elk
  • Salt Pepper + Three Chiles spice blend
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1/4 cup mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 slices colby cheese
  • 4 brioche buns
  • Butter lettuce

Start things off by heating a grill for medium high indirect heat. Slice the sausages down the middle without slicing them in half so they open like a book. Score the interior of the sausages. Divide the elk into four half-pound patties and season generously with the Salt Pepper + Three Chiles spice blend.

 

Grill the burgers over indirect heat for about 5 minutes per side. Elk can dry out so try not to over cook these. Finish each burger with a slice of cheese. Grill the sausages over direct heat until they get gorgeous char. Don’t forget to toast your buns!

 

Whisk together the mayo, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Build the burgers by topping each burger bun with a little sauce, a burger patty, some onions, a sausage link, and some lettuce.

Elk Chili in Bread Boats with Gremolata

Author Mark & Fey
Course Dinner, Stew, Tailgate
Keyword Beef, Chili, Elk
Cook Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

For the chili

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion diced
  • 2 pasilla peppers seeds and stems removed, diced
  • 2 pounds ground Elk
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons ground ancho chile powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon coriander
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 cloves garlic crushed
  • cup masa harina flour
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • 1 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 15 ounce can white beans, drained

For the gremolata and bread boats

  • 1 cup fresh parsley leaves
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 large lemon washed and dried
  • ¼ cup olive oil

Instructions

  • Pre-heat a grill to 300º, with indirect heat. Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and elk. Season with a generous pinch of kosher salt and cook until the elk is browned, breaking up with a spatula as needed, about 8 minutes. While the elk is cooking, dice the onion and pasilla peppers. Remove the elk and set aside. Add the onions and pasilla. Cook until soft. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about one minute. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, making sure to scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Add the spices and masa, stir and cook until fragrant, 1 minute more. Add the tomatoes, beans, browned elk and stock and simmer, uncovered, on the grill for 25 minutes. Meanwhile make the gremolata and prepare the bread boats.  
  • For the Gremolata:  Use a chef’s knife to finely chop the parsley. Grate the garlic cloves onto your pile of parsley and then use the same grater to zest the lemon onto the parsley as well. Chop through the pile of parsley, 2 to 3 more times to combine. Move the gremolata to a bowl. Use a serrated knife to cut off the top of each bread roll and pull out about 2 inches of the soft interior of the bread to create the bread boat. 
  • Check the chili for seasoning and add salt as needed. Portion the chili into the bread boats and top with the gremolata. Pair with our Aviation Gin Smoked Blood Orange Negroni.
