Steps

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground buffalo meat, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, sea salt, and coconut flour. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
2. Divide the mixture into 2 equal portions and shape them into patties, about 2.5 cm thick.
3. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the buffalo patties and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 71°C.
