But honestly, I’m not a grill master. I usually make my husband do the grilling. Well, last week my husband was working late and I had the most massive craving for a turkey burger. So I put on my big girl pants, stepped up to our grill and grilled up this bad boy. Doesn’t he look delish?! He has a savory homemade BBQ sauce tucked inside and slathered all over the top. He’s moist, juicy and best of all, easy to make.
