Ingredients

1 pound peppercorn bacon, diced
5 pounds ground venison
2 cups bread crumbs
½ cup Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup evaporated milk
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

Directions

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Place bacon in a stainless steel bowl; add venison, bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce, milk, garlic, and cayenne pepper. Mix venison mixture using your hands and form into 5-ounce balls. Press balls with the back of a side dish to form patties.
Grill patties on the preheated grill until desired doneness is reached, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Cook's Note:

We used the fat of the bacon instead of mixing with pork fat.
