Instructions

1
Season gently. Put the turkey in a bowl and add the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, Worcestershire, Dijon, and parsley. Mix only until evenly combined; overmixing makes turkey burgers dense.
2
Shape. Form four patties about 3/4 inch thick. Press a shallow indentation into the center of each patty so it stays flatter while cooking.
3
Preheat. Heat a Blackstone, skillet, or grill to medium-high, about 375-400°F. Lightly oil the cooking surface.
4
Cook. Cook the patties for about 5-6 minutes on the first side. Flip once and cook another 4-6 minutes, depending on thickness.
5
Finish safely. Turkey burgers are done when the center reaches 165°F. Add cheese during the final minute, then rest the burgers for 3 minutes before serving. Best toppings: sharp white cheddar, lettuce, tomato, pickles, thin red onion, and garlic aioli or spicy mayo.
