Who You Callin' A Jerk? Jamaican Jerk Turkey Burgers & Mango Slaw

Who you callin’ a Jerk?

Jerk seasoning is one of those slept on things that numerous people are scared of because they think it must be insanely hot or spicy. Truth be told the flavors that combined to make Jerk Seasoning are commonly found spices that most of have in our pantries, we just never thought to combined them in this fashion.

Allspice (or Pimento as its called in Jamaica,) Scotch Bonnet Peppers, Cloves, Cinnamon, Scallions, Nutmeg, Thyme, Garlic, Salt and Pepper weave together to create a sensation that both your nostrils, mouth and stomach will not soon forget. Truly aromatic and pleasing in its smell this flavor lends itself well to pork, chicken, shrimp, beef, turkey, shellfish, fish and most amazingly Tofu.

Using the Jerk Seasoning in this case with the ground turkey creates a deep set of earthy flavors that go well with a side or macaroni salad or a plate of fresh sliced fruits drizzled in a little honey or Chile & Lime Salt.

Enjoy this recipe with a cold Red Stripe Beer, Rum & Coke or Sweet Tea.

National Cheeseburger Day / The Supreme Plate Turkey Burger

Today is National Cheeseburger Day and we recently sent out a tweet letting people know just what it was. Instantly we got a few hits for our Supreme Turkey Burger recipe so we knew we had to share it with the people. This recipe is an adaptation from our classic Bacon Cheeseburger Recipe, only in this recipe instead of BBQ sauce we use ketchup so as to not overpower the delicious flavors of the ground turkey.
The key to this one is not overcooking the burger, leaving you with something tougher than your great granddaddies elbows.
Enjoy this one quickly and often because on top of tasting really good, it is actually pretty healthy for you.
