Ingredients

1 pound ground turkey
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/4 cup seeded and finely diced jalapeños (from about 1 large jalapeño)
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1/2 cup freshly shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon tamari
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon Meat Mitch Candied Jalapeño Seasoning
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
4 tablespoons Meat Mitch Whomp! Sauce, plus more for serving
nacho-sliced pickled jalapeños
4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
4 brioche burger buns
Green leafy lettuce

Instructions

Make the burger patties: in a large bowl, add the ground turkey, mayonnaise, diced jalapeños, red onions, cilantro, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, tamari, Candied Jalapeño Seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined, then form into 4 equal-sized burger patties. Set aside.
Preheat the grill over medium-high heat (about 400°F). Place the burgers on the grill and cook on one side for 5 minutes until browned and they easily lift off the grates.
Flip the burgers, and using a pastry brush, brush about 1 tablespoon of Meat Mitch Whomp! Sauce on top of each burger. Cook for an additional 5 to 6 minutes until the burgers are fully cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Place some pickled jalapeños on top of each burger, then a slice of sharp cheddar cheese. Cover and cook until the cheese has just melted, 1 to 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes while you toast the buns.
Butter the cut sides of the buns and toast over medium heat until golden on the buttered side. Transfer to a platter and set aside. Tip: use mayo for a satisfying crispy toast.
Spread a layer of Meat Mitch Whomp! Sauce on the bottom buns. Top with the grilled turkey burgers, then add a little extra Whomp! sauce, if desired. Finish with lettuce and place the top buns over everything. Serve and enjoy!
