Have been eating Turkey hotdogs and don't like them at all because of taste. Hamburger is much better in taste.
Creating a turkey burger that tastes every bit as meaty, tender and juicy as the beef kind is a tall order, since turkey must be cooked to a higher temperature than beef, and it lacks beef's high percentage of lubricating fat. This accounts for its appeal as a healthier burger alternative, but it also explains why these lean patties often cook up dry, chalky and bland.
Are you using the 7% fat? You should be. If that's still not enough, you can mix the meat with a panade before forming the patties. It's something people have been using in making meatballs and meatloaves for centuries. You soak some good white bread (cut in cubes, crusts removed) in a little milk for a couple of minutes. Then squeeze out the milk and add the bread to your burger mixture.
if you can hit the wild the local wild turkeys with your car- then take the breast out of them,,,,mix the lean breast with bacon in your home grinder,,,then you are all set
if you insist on the super lean turkey burger, then fry it with olive oil and throw in some herbs/spices
