Steps for Preparation
- Prepare the grill. Divide the ground turkey
into as many portions as desired. Divide each portion in two and
roll into balls. Place onto a plastic wrap lined sheet tray and
use another piece of plastic wrap to press each ball into a patty
about 4-5 inches in diameter.
- Working with half of the patties, place a portion
of cheese onto each patty; cut the ham to fit over the cheese. Arrange
the cheese and ham so that they leave a 1/4-inch gap along the edge
of each patty.
- Top the cheese and ham with the remaining patties.
Use your fingertips to seal the edges together. In a bowl, combine
the oil, salt, and pepper.
- To prevent burgers from sticking, brush them
with the salt and oil mixture, placing the burgers over medium-hot
coals to grill.
- Cover and cook the burgers, checking for doneness
with the Cook'd Right® Sensor.
- Quickly insert dark sensor tip into center
of meat. Wait 5-10 seconds.
- Remove sensor tip and check color.
- Continue checking with the same sensor until
done.
- Discard sensor when finished.
- Burger is done when tip of sensor is fully
orange, after about 10 minutes.
- Burgers should be nicely charred on both sides,
and the cheese should begin to melt through to the outside of the
burger.
- Remove the burgers when cooked and reserve
warm while toasting the buns over the coals. Place the burgers on
the toasted buns, spread with mustard and top with pickle slices
and lettuce leaves before serving.
