Juicy Grilled Turkey Burgers Recipes

JUICY TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine the burger ingredients in a bowl. Mix together using your hands, then shape into patties about 1/2 to 3/4-inch thick. Make an indentation in the center of each burger with your fingers. Place in the freezer for 20-40 minutes to help them firm up before placing on the grill.
• Heat a grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean. Spray both sides of each burger patty with cooking spray, then place on the grill. Cook for 5-6 minutes, then flip and top with cheese. Cook for another 5-6 minutes on the other side until done. The burgers should reach 165 degrees F in the center when tested with an instant read digital meat thermometer.
• Toast buns, then assemble burgers with lettuce and tomatoes on the bottom bun followed by the burgers and other toppings.

BEST-EVER GRILLED TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• or large plate with parchment paper, wax paper, or aluminum foil. Set aside.
• Arrange a few paper towels out on a cutting board, set a box mixer on top. Run the onion along the sides of the box mixer to grate it into fine, shredded pieces. Once grated, use the paper towel to soak up excess moisture from the onion. Too much moisture will make the turkey burger mixture very difficult to handle, so do not skip the extra 30 seconds it takes to blot the moisture from the grated onion. If your onion seems very wet, you can also wrap it in paper towels & wring out the moisture over the sink.
• Add the ground turkey, grated onion, garlic, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt & ground black pepper to a large bowl. Using your hands, mix until just combined. Overworking the turkey burger mixture will lead to tough burgers; take care not to overmix.
• Divide the turkey burger mixture into 4 even portions, about 1/3 pound (5.3 ounces) each. Lightly coat your hands in oil (or mist with nonstick cooking spray) & form each portion into a 1-inch thick patty. The mixture will be very wet at this point, so there's no need to fuss over making your burgers look perfect - just aim for forming them into the general shape & size you're after. Set them on the prepared baking sheet.
• the turkey burgers: Transfer the baking sheet with the turkey burger patties to the freezer. Chill for at least 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, as the turkey burgers chill, preheat the grill for medium-high direct heat grilling, about 450 degrees F. Just before placing the burgers on the grill, generously oil a wad of paper towel. Use grilling tongs to run the oiled paper towel over the grill grates, generously oiling the grates.
• Remove the turkey burgers from the freezer. At this point they should be quite a bit easier to handle; finish forming them into 1-inch thick patties, using your thumb to create an indent in the center of each patty. Firmly press each turkey burger patty down onto the prepared grill grates. Grill the turkey burgers for 6 minutes per side, or until a thermometer inserted in the center of the turkey burgers registers 160 degrees F. If you'd like to add cheese to your turkey burgers, do so when there are 2 minutes left of grilling time.
• Allow the turkey burgers to rest for a few minutes (residual heat will increase the internal temperature to 165 degrees F) before serving as desired. Enjoy!

GRILLED TURKEY BURGERS (JUICY AND DELICIOUS)

Steps:

• Start by combining all the ingredients, minus the salt and pepper, in a large mixing bowl. It's important to get them mixed together well. The best way to do that is to just get in there with your hands and mix it up.
• Once it's mixed, divide it into four equal parts. You don't have to weigh them for exact portions, just go by sight and get them as equal as possible. I like to roll them into balls for the best estimate. This method also makes forming the burger patties really easy.
• Form your patties and place them on parchment paper. Then sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
• Place the patties in the freezer to allow them to set up. This makes for an easier transfer to the hot grill when the grill is preheated (about 20 minutes).
• Light your grill and set up for medium-high direct heat.
• Once your grill is preheated, remove the turkey burgers from the freezer. Give them a light coating of olive oil. You can also use a non-stick cooking spray. Place the burgers on the grill directly over the hot coals.
• Grill them for four minutes per side, with a 90-degree turn at the halfway point. Then flip the burgers and add the pineapple slices directly over the coals.
• Cook both the burgers and pineapple for 2 minutes. Then flip the pineapple, turn the burgers 90 degrees, and add the optional cheese. Place the lid on the grill and allow them to grill for another 2 minutes to melt the cheese.
• Check the burgers' internal temperature with a reliable quick-read thermometer. They should be around 160 °F. Remove the burgers and pineapple from the grill and place them on the buns.
