Tasty Turkey Burger

19 Mar

So, a while back I posted a link to my buffalo turkey burger, which was really good. But, sometimes you just want a more classic burger. So Here it is. I used a trick my best friend taught me, and added some A1 to the meat for great flavor. Also, I use a steak seasoning that is the “Kroger” grocery store brand. You could probably use McCormick montreal steak grilling seasoning.

Ingredients:

– 3/4 lbs of ground turkey
– 2 tbsp of onion, very finely chopped
– 2 tablespoons of A1 Steak sauce
– 1/4 cup italian bread crumbs
– 1 egg
– 1 tablespoon minced garlic
– 2 tsp “McCormick grill masters Montreal steak seasoning” or “kroger steak seasoning” equivalent

Directions:

1. Mix all ingredients, except for steak seasoning, together until well combined.

2. Roll out about 16 inches of plastic wrap, and divide meat into 4 even balls. Space evenly across plastic wrap.

3. Place another sheet of plastic wrap on top of meat, and smush each ball into a patty, between the sheets of plastic wrap.

4. Remove top sheet of plastic wrap, and sprinkle 1 tsp of steak seasoning on top sides of the patties.

5. Recover patties, flip over, and repeat step 4 with the back sides of the patties.

6. Cook patties in a skillet, or on the grill. About 4-5 min on each side, or until center reaches 165.
