Buffalo Turkey Burgers

Buffalo Turkey Burgers

I'm fairly certain these are the best burgers I've ever consumed! If you like buffalo wings then you will LOVE these burgers. I found the original recipe here. And don't freak if you have never tried turkey burgers, I promise you won't miss the beef.... I prefer turkey burgers to beef burgers anyway...and they are better for you!! Yum!


Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter, divided
2 tablespoons white onion, minced
1 clove of garlic, minced
1/2 pound ground turkey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3-4 tablespoons Frank's buffalo wing sauce
1 bag of shredded mozzarella cheese
 kaiser rolls
ranch or blue cheese dressing, I used ranch

Directions:
Saute onion and garlic in 1 tablespoon of butter in a small skillet over medium heat.


In a bowl, combine cooked onion and garlic, ground turkey, salt and pepper. Do not over mix. Shape into patties.

I cooked ours using our George Foreman grill but if you do not own one you can cook them on an outdoor grill or on a cast iron grill pan over medium heat. Cook for 5-6 minutes per side. Turkey should be cooked all the way through, no red. The juices will run clear.


Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter and combine with 3-4 tablespoons of Frank's buffalo wing sauce, set aside.

When the burgers are finished cooking, coat them generously in the sauce mixture and top with a handful of cheese. Spread the tops buns with the dressing of your choice and serve!
