A low-fat alternative to beef, ground buffalo is becoming increasingly available.

Cooks' note:

If you aren't able to grill outdoors, you can use a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan. Grill onions first, then burgers, then muffins, all over moderately high heat. (Burgers may take 1 minute longer than if cooked outdoors.) Lower heat during cooking as necessary. *Available at specialty foods shops and Tienda.com. **Available at Whole Foods stores.
