Bacon Ranch Turkey Burgers Recipe
These Bacon Ranch Turkey Burgers are a lighter choice, but full of flavor! Top with your favorite burger toppings and you have a low cal and delicious meal!
I have a confession to make.
I am absolutely, positively, terrified of the grill. This may seem kind of strange since I’m married to a man of the flame, who I actually like to call my “Big Green Egg-head.” My husband loves to grill so much that we actually have TWO grills. One is the Big Green Egg, or B.G.E. as I refer to it, plus our gas grill. And I’m afraid of them both!
Mostly, I just haven’t been trained on how to use the grill on my own properly, so I just avoid it. That’s why I always like a burger that tastes just as good cooked indoors as one hot off the backyard grill. And y’all, these turkey burgers are IT!
If you hear “turkey burger” and think “flavorless,” these Bacon Ranch Turkey Burgers will TOTALLY change your mind! These are SO delicious, and I would take one of these over a beef burger ANY day. My husband really enjoys these, too, and our (almost) 4 year old eats them with no complaints.
If you would prefer to make these using beef, you totally can! Just sub the beef for the turkey, and keep everything else the same.
Just mix the ingredients all together in one big bowl and shape into patties. I use a 19 oz. package of ground turkey and I usually make about five burgers. Make sure you use 93% lean! The 99% will turn out too, dry. Trust me on this. 🙂
I cook mine in a skillet over medium-low heat for about 7-8 minutes per side. In the last minute of cooking, add some cheese if you’d like, and cover the pan with a lid to help the cheese get nice and melty. Top with some cooked bacon and any other toppings your heart desires! I added some lettuce, tomato, mayo, and a few slices of avocado to mine.
Mmmm…now that looks like a plate full of summer. Even without the grill marks. 😉 Hope you’re all having a fabulous week!

Hi Ashlyn,
I would love this Bacon Ranch Turkey Burger, this one will be going on my menu. Thanks so much for sharing your awesome post with Full Plate Thursday and hope you have a great week!

Belle, I can’t wait to make this burger. I’ve tricked my anti-turkey husband one time. I used turkey instead of hamburger for tacos. He ate so many, I lost count! The funny part was, the whole time he was eating it, he was talking about how he despises turkey. I was seriously laughing so hard with my inside laugh… that it was not pretty! Now, I think I can totally get away with tricking him again with these tasty burgers!
Don’t be afraid of the grill, my friend. But, the gas grills scare me. So, I just stick with charcoal. But again, I love your easy method on the stove top! Have a wonderful weekend!
These burgers look perfect! Loving the combo of flavors you used! Perfect for summer!
We love turkey burgers sans the bacon. This is a great recipe, thanks for linking up with us at the #WWDParty.
These look really good! Visiting from G’Day Saturday from Natasha in Oz.
How fabulous to see your comment here Carole! You are so sweet to mention the linky party too. Thanks so much.

This looks absolutely mouth-watering. My family loves a great turkey burger (Greek turkey burgers with tzatziki sauce is our favorite!). I can’t wait to try these out.
