Ingredients
- 2 pounds freshly ground turkey
- Four 1-inch cubes of Brie cheese, 1/2-inch thick
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 large granny smith apple, cored and sliced 1/2-inch thick crosswise
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Four rolls
Directions
To prepare the burgers:
Shape the meat firmly into 4 round uniform patties about 1 1/2inches thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty and place 1 cube of the cheese in each. Knead the meat slightly to cover the hole. Brush both sides of the burgers lightly with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat until just smoking. Cook the burgers to your liking. Brush the apples on both sides with the vegetable oil. Grill (in a grill pan) until golden on both sides. Place a burger on the bottom of each roll, top with 1 or 2 apple slices and a dollop of ketchup

I've made these burgers a few times, each time trying something different. To speed things up on a busy night, I pick up fresh, pre-formed turkey burgers at the store. This really lowers the prep time. Instead of putting a square of the bre in the burger, I experiment with different types of "spreadable" bre I find at my grocery stores and local specialty food shops. I've left the apple raw before and that gives it a nice, crunchy freshness! Adding caramelized onions is also good!

If you make this recipe as is, it will be good. However, I did add some additional flavor to the meat before pattying. Addition of some garlic salt, curry and finely diced yellow onion made it very flavorful. Also, I would suggest multiple, tiny pieces of cheese embedded in the patty. If you make them too big, you will get 1 big bite of cheese and many with none.

I have even started experimenting with different cheeses to "stuff" the burger. I have put this on the "regular routine" for frequently prepared dinners. It is easy to keep all the ingredients on hand for those nights when you aren't planning ahead.
