Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to 350 degrees over medium heat.
  2. Add the ground turkey, cracker crumbs, egg, chives, and seasoned salt to a mixing bowl and use your hands to combine the mixture. Shape into 4 patties and lightly press your thumb into the center of each patty to form an indent. This will help the patties hold their shape as they cook.
  3. Place on the grill and cook for 6 minutes per side or until they reach a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  4. Remove from the grill and place on a plate and cover tightly with foil while you grill the buns.
  5. Spread the buns with butter and place butter side down on the hot grill. Grill for 2 minutes, or until lightly toasted.
  6. Assemble the burgers and top with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • You can use any type of cracker here, such as Saltines or even Cheez-Its for a different flavor.
  • We prefer to use 85% lean turkey so that it's not too dry after cooking. If you have leaner turkey, consider adding a drizzle of olive oil to the meat mixture before shaping into patties.
  • These can also be cooked on the stovetop or in the air fryer. To air fry, cook at 360 degrees for 7 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
