Ingredients
4 frozen turkey burgers
4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
4 soft sesame hamburger buns
4 to 6 tablespoons prepared ranch dressing
Lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles for topping
Ketchup, mustard, relish, and barbecue sauce as desired
Directions
Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat, arranging charcoal in one even layer if using a charcoal grill.
Place the frozen turkey burgers on the hot grill and cover. Cook for approximately 6 minutes, then flip the burgers.
Cook the flipped burgers for another 4 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the grill cover and place one slice of sharp cheddar cheese on top of each burger. Continue cooking uncovered for about 2 minutes until the cheese is fully melted.
Optional: Place the sesame hamburger buns on the grill to lightly toast them, about 1–2 minutes.
Spread a generous amount of ranch dressing on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
Place a cheeseburger on each ranch-dressed bun and top with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and any additional condiments such as ketchup, mustard, relish, or barbecue sauce.
Serve the burgers immediately while warm and the cheese is still melted.
Comments
Ground turkey, cheddar, buns, and ranch are all stocked routinely at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, and ALDI in Charlotte with no special stops required. The stated thirty minutes is honest for assembly and cooking; ground turkey patties brown quickly on a skillet or grill. This is a weeknight-friendly family meal that comes together without fussy technique, though the recipe's vagueness about vegetables and condiments means you'll be deciding on your own what goes on the plate—budget about four to five dollars per serving once you add tomatoes, lettuce, and pickles. The dish does not reheat well, so plan for same-night eating, and it suits households that want speed over complexity.
