Ingredients
-
2 lbs ground turkey (preferably mixed white and dark meat)
-
2 green onions, finely chopped (or use 1 small onion)
-
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh garlic (about 3 cloves, or use 1-2 teaspoons garlic powder)
-
2 teaspoons seasoning salt (can reduce to 1-1/2 teaspoons)
-
1 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
-
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
-
2 eggs, slightly beaten
-
1/3-1/2 cup hickory-flavor barbecue sauce (can use more you may need to increase the breadcrumbs if increasing the BBQ sauce)
-
1/2-1 teaspoon hot sauce (or to taste)
-
1/2 cup finely shredded carrot (DO NOT squeeze out any moisture in the carrots!)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground turkey with all the ingredients; mix well to combine (if you find the mixture is too moist you can add in a small amount more of bread crumbs).
- Shape into patties, then place the patties on a plate and cover with plastic wrap; chill for 4-24 hours to blend flavors (24 hours is even better!).
- Place on the barbecue and grill until done (about 12-15 minutes) if made on a outdoor grill.
- DELICIOUS!
