If you are unsure about the taste of venison, these burgers are a wonderful way to try it out. “Foodies” across the globe have embraced venison for its earthy flavor: Deer graze on grass, acorn, berries, and herbs, which lends to a unique taste and texture that is not found with any other cut of meat.

Venison is usually quite lean, so in order to make sure these burgers aren’t too dry, the recipe calls for egg yolks and olive oil to give it a bit of help. If you enjoy bacon, and save your drippings (or a few strips), you can add a heaping spoonful of the liquid (or ground...
