turkey burgers!!
Replies

I like a good turkey burger and also love a good beef burger. Depends on the brand or if I am making it home made. Have bought some good ground chuck and combined it with ground sausage, stuffed with cheese and let it cook on the grill til the cheese oozes out. There are some good brands of chicken burgers out there too. Ok now I know what's for dinner!!

I am also looking for your blog. Would love to check out your recipe since we eat a LOT of ground turkey in my household. Please post a link if you don't mind.

I'd also really love the recipe. I've been searching all over the internets for a turkey burger recipe but can't find one.
Please post yours before I starve myself to death!!!0 -

what's leaner and has more protein, 80/30 turkey or 90/10 ground beef? how about 90/10 ground beef or 90/10 ground turkey?
When you actually compare apples to apples, there's not really a difference between lean ground beef and lean ground turkey...90/10 is 90/10...0 -

I shred or finely chop vegetables into my turkey burgers so they're moist.0

wow. Pics or it didn't happen!!
I love it when people gourmet stuff up. That burger sounds so awesome I could taste it, lol.0 -

I'm partial to fried egg.
I never tried that. *scribbles in "to do" list*
I like my egg fried but not all the way through so I get a little thick yolk action happening. Where we're going, we won't need mayonnaise.
Ha, cool. I like creamy avocado action going on in my burgers. I don't need mayo either (unless it's homemade ♥)
I like your approach though, because, just as with avocados, I believe a fried egg can make anything better

I totally foodstagrammed it but I don't know how to share pics on mobile.0 -
Okay, since we're all talking about our TB faves:
- Crusty, day old french bread grated (not to finely) into crumbs,
- An Egg
- a little bit of worcestshire sauce (or soy) for seasoning
Like @SophiaSerraoI like mine with an Avocado (but I'm from Cali so that's a given)
Thanks @Queenmunchy , I'll try it with veggies mixed in next time (just not KALE..

I am right now totally thinking of a juicy burger with ground sausage and cheese and topped with a fried egg and maybe some avocado. All that on a brioche bun with some fried onions and mushrooms too. I got a recipe out of this thread after all 0

I grate a zucchini and squish put the water and add to the turkey mix. Keeps them moist.0

The thread is positive except for the continual debate over turkey vs beef etc. It changes the tone just like countless other threads. Are you here to discuss delicious turkey burger recipes?0

Except she never provided the turkey burger recipe. There is no recipe here! And pointing out that beef and turkey are, nutritionally, almost identical isn't really a debate.0 -

the point of mentioning the option of beef was explained, i believe, but i will try to reiterate so you understand the value of it being discussed.
the OP seems to classify a burger (beef i'm assuming) as a "cheat meal" (which is oh so wrong), and adds the implication that turkey is a "healthy" alternative to beef. therein lies the issue.
the point of equating beef to turkey in terms of macros is to help someone, who may be new at this, realize that while beef *can* have more fat (not that fat is bad), it certainly doesn't always.
this can be helpful when choosing what to eat, and if someone has learned that beef ain't the devil, then it was a good thing to bring up, wouldn't you say? i thought so.
as for recipes, sure....here's one.
thanksgiving burger...
-ground turkey
-your favorite stuffing (prepared. stove top works just fine here, but a nice pepperidge farm cornbread stuffing works too.)
-cranberry sauce (i prefer jellied ocean spray but use your own favorite)
-sliced sharp cheddar or the cheese of your choice
-mayonaise (dont skimp on this...the fat is satiating)
-brioche buns
-sea salt
mix the stuffing in with the meat and incorporate well.
form nice fat patties, salt liberally, and grill/broil to your liking. add the cheese on top and let it melt.
lightly grill/broil the brioche buns and slather with mayo.
pop the cooked patty on the bottom half of the bun, top with a slice of delicious jellied cranberry sauce, put the hat on that bad boy and enjoy.
you can add lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, onions...whatever if you like them. but i find the thanksgiving flavor comes from the combo of the ingredients mentioned above and only those.
