Sweet Bison Blues
Bison, blue cheese and bacon jam, which is exactly as rich as it sounds. The sweetness of the jam and caramelised onion takes the edge off the funky blue cheese, and bison stands up to all of it. It is heavy and not for everyone, but blue cheese fans rate it highly.
The story
Bison came close to disappearing. In the late eighteenth century there were tens of millions of them in North America; by 1889 commercial hunting had left a few hundred. Careful breeding brought numbers back to roughly half a million, much of it on ranches raising the animals for meat, and in 2016 the bison became the national mammal of the United States. Bison is leaner than beef, so Bareburger, which puts bison and elk on the same menu as its beef, adds richness back with bacon, blue cheese and caramelised onion.

About Bareburger
Bareburger began as burgers cooked in the cramped kitchen of Sputnik, a music venue in Brooklyn. Euripides Pelekanos and his partners, his brother among them, moved into a run-down former bakery in Astoria, Queens, in 2009 and opened a forty-seat restaurant. Within a month the dining room was packed, the place paid for itself in ten months, and they started franchising almost immediately.
Restaurants mostly in New York City and the surrounding states.
