Ingredients

For the burgers:

  • 3 pounds ground turkey meat 85%-93% lean
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp mayonasie
  • 2 tbsp Italian bread crumbs a heaping 2 tbsp!
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1-2 tsp black pepper

To fry:

  • 3 tbsp olive oil *an overflowing tbsp of oil in between each batch

Toppings: optional ideas!

  • 12 whole-grain burger buns toast and butter for extra flavor!
  • 1 head romaine lettuce
  • 12 strips fully cooked bacon
  • 1-2 roma tomatoes sliced
  • mayonnaise

Instructions

  • First, in a large mixing bowl combine the ground turkey, mustard, mayo, and seasonings. Incorporate with hands until fully ccombined
  • On some tin foil (or a disposable surface) form 12 burger patties.
  • Next, pour a tablespoon of olive oil into the pan (more if using cast iron) on medium heat.
  • Add four burger patties at a time (depending on surface space). Each batch should take about 10 minutes in total. Flip every 2-3 minutes to cook evenly. Make sure the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 165°F.
  • Once the first batch is done, I recommend placing the cooked patties on a oven-safe plate. Place in the oven set to a "keep warm" (160-170°F) setting.
  • Between each burger batch (should be 3 batches total) add olive oil. When the last batch is done begin assembly!
  • I like to toast my bun (most times in the toaster, but. you can also pan toast them too) then add mayo on the bottom. I place the turkey pattie on top and add my lettuce, tomato slices, and bacon. Serve and enjoy immediately!
