Grilled Turkey Burgers
We love swapping beef for ground turkey to make our favorite recipes a little lighter but they are still big on flavor! These healthy turkey burgers are one of our favorite dinners to make in the summer time. They are light and tasty with a flavorful amount of deliciousness. The ground turkey is so lean and flavorful. Adding in the remaining ingredients to create a round patty makes these burgers over the top. This is a MUST make this summer time. These turkey burgers are seasoned with onion, garlic, and lots of herbs and seasoning (and just the right amount of spice!). I like to add a bit of barbecue sauce right to my turkey burger mix to give them even more barbecue flavor! This summer these grilled turkey burgers are going to be a hit. My hubby loves to make these and does a great job keeping them juicy and tender. Add all your favorite toppings on your burger and your favorite bun. Impress your family with this flavorful juicy turkey burger!
Juicy Turkey Burger Ingredients:
Easy and simple ingredients that will go along way. The turkey meat is the most important and adding in the filing just enhances each patty to the fullest!
Ground Turkey: 93/7 is a great turkey meat and what I used. Bread Crumbs: The bread crumbs will help keep the burger patty from falling apart while being grilled. Dijon Mustard Worcestershire Sauce Garlic Egg: Holds it all together Salt and Pepper to taste

Grilling up some turkey burgers during the summer time just got easier with this homemade version. We love how quick and easy these burgers are to make. They turn out so tender and juicy every time.
Tips to Keep Turkey Burgers Juicy:
My recipe is deliciously flavored and keeps the turkey moist and rich throughout the process from making a turkey patty to grilling it. Here are a few extra tips to ensure the turkey burger is prepared and grilled to perfection!
Milk: Add a little milk to the turkey burger mixture. This can help keep the meat moist as well as tender while grilling. Butter: Just to ensure a moist and juicy burger even if it is over cooked, adding a slice of butter to the tops of each patty before cooking helps eliminate any mishaps. Overcooking: It is best to use a meat thermometer to check the burgers while grilling. Turkey burgers can be overcooked and dry out easily. Once the internal degrees reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit, remove them from heat immediately.

For a stackable burger add in all of your favorite toppings in between your buns. Here are a few ideas!

Making Burger Patties Ahead of Time:
Burger patties, beef or turkey, are great for making ahead in the summer as they can easily be refrigerated or frozen.
Refrigerate: Simply prepare the patties as the recipe instructs, then place in a single layer or stack with wax paper in between layers. Cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours. Can you Freeze Patties? Yes! Place patties in a single layer on a baking sheet on parchment paper. Freeze for 2 hours or until firm. Remove from the baking sheet and place in a large freezer bag or air tight freezer container and freeze for up to 3 months. You can grill right from frozen!
