- Use a light touch when forming the burgers. Do not pack the meat too tightly, or the burgers will be dry and dense.
- Make sure the grill is hot before cooking the burgers. This will help to sear the outside of the burgers and prevent them from sticking to the grill.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Do not overcook the burgers, or they will become dry.
- Serve the turkey burgers immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, onion, avocado, and cheese.
