I wanted to make some burgers for my wife (who doesn't eat beef) one day. I came up with this grilled turkey burger recipe on the fly, remembering some items that my father put in his burgers. My wife instantly loved them! I thought it was a fluke but I made them for parties for my wife and everyone else loved them too! Quick and delicious!

Place patties on the preheated grill, close the lid, and let them sit for 6 to 8 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until browned and no longer pink, 7 to 9 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a patty should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve on buns immediately.

Chef John's Boneless Whole Turkey
A deboned turkey is easy to carve and makes an impressive looking roast that will wow your Thanksgiving guests. The idea of removing pesky bones before your bird makes its grand holiday entrance may not be one you've thought of, but it is definitely worth considering! Don't be worried about sacrificing flavor — a deboned turkey tastes virtually identical to one with bones, and this technique works on any size bird. So skip the fuss of table-side carving and enjoy all of the flavor with none of the bones! Stuff with your favorite stuffing.
