I LOVE a good burger. Juicy, flavorful and cooked with some sear on the outside is my favorite way to enjoy them.
When a farmer friend asked me if I had a good Ground Turkey Burger recipe I had to scratch my head.
No, I didn’t.
To be honest, I never had much success making turkey burgers but I was certainly up for the challenge.
After some trial and error, I’m proud to say I developed a recipe that would rival a beef burger any day of the week!
Want to know my secret?? Well, I remembered my Grandma teaching me to sear the patty, first, in an oiled skillet and, second, finishing in the oven.
Voila! It did the trick.
This burger is MOIST (sorry to the haters of that word) and delicious. And, did I mention that it’s easy to make???
