• Working in batches, cook 2 of the turkey burgers, about 4 on each side, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.

THANKSGIVING FLAVORED TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Heat the butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook and stir the onion and celery until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Place the cooked onion and celery in a large bowl with the ground turkey, stuffing mix, and eggs; mix to thoroughly combine. Form the mixture into 16 patties. Unlike hamburger, these patties will not change shape while cooking, so make them even in size.
• Grill the turkey burgers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Place each patty on a hamburger bun, and top with cranberry sauce and a dollop of whipped cream cheese to serve.

Steps:

• Using the tines of a fork, poke holes in potato all over. Place potato on a plate and microwave on high until a paring knife can be inserted in middle of potato with no resistance, 9 to 12 minutes, checking and flipping the potato every 3 minutes. Alternatively, place potato in 425°F oven and cook until a paring knife can be inserted in middle of potato with no resistance, about 1 hour. Split potato open and allow to cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Using a spoon, scoop out flesh in a small bowl, discard skin.
• Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. When foaming subsides, add onion and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in sage, thyme, and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Place turkey, sausage, 1/4 cup sweet potato flesh, and vegetable mixture in a medium bowl and mix with hands until incorporated. Form mixture into 4 patties. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Light one chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and spread the coals evenly over entire surface of charcoal grate. Set cooking grate in place, cover grill and allow to preheat for 5 minutes. Clean and oil the grilling grate. Grill burgers over direct heat until an instant read thermometer reads at least 145°F in the center of burger, but no more than 165°F.
• Lightly toast potato rolls on grill, about 30 seconds. Transfer to plate or tray and top each bun with a burger, cranberry-apple relish, gravy, spinach, and fried onions. Serve immediately. This Recipe Appears In How to Make the Best Thanksgiving Turkey Burgers
