Step-by-Step Instructions for Grilling Perfection:

1. Crafting the Zesty Mayonnaise Spread: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Traeger Fin & Feather Rub, and lemon juice. Mix well until a smooth and flavorful spread is achieved.

2. Prepping the Grill for Culinary Action: Set your Traeger grill to “High” and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes This ensures an evenly heated cooking surface for your burgers.

3. Forming the Flavorful Patties: In a separate bowl, combine the ground turkey, Fin & Feather rub, chopped jalapeños, and cilantro. Gently mix and form the mixture into 5-6 ounce patties, ensuring they are of uniform thickness for even cooking.

4. Grilling the Burgers to Perfection: Place the patties directly on the preheated grill grate and cook for 5-7 minutes Flip the patties and continue grilling for another 5-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. This ensures the burgers are cooked through while retaining their juiciness.

5. Assembling the Culinary Masterpiece: Spread the zesty mayonnaise mixture on the bottom bun. Top it with the perfectly grilled wild turkey burger, followed by a generous handful of fresh arugula, juicy tomato slices, and creamy avocado slices.

6. Savoring the Flavorful Creation: Take a bite and experience the symphony of flavors – the savory wild turkey, the zesty mayonnaise, the peppery arugula, the juicy tomato, and the creamy avocado – all coming together in perfect harmony.

Tips for an Unforgettable Grilling Experience:

• Adjust the heat to your liking: If you prefer a milder burger, reduce the amount of jalapeño or omit it altogether.
• Experiment with different toppings: Try adding other fresh ingredients like onions, lettuce, or cheese to customize your burger to your taste.
• Use a meat thermometer: This ensures your burgers are cooked to the perfect temperature, preventing them from becoming dry or overcooked.
