What are the best tips for cooking ground turkey?

Leaner than beef — add a splash of olive oil to prevent dryness. Season well, turkey is mild.

What internal temperature should ground turkey reach?

Ground Turkey should reach 165°F / 74°C for safe consumption.

Sauté (crumbled) at 7–9 min. Break apart as it cooks.

Bake (meatballs) at 22–15 min. 1.5″ balls. Don't overcrowd.

Grill (burgers) at 5–6 min/side. Oil the grates — it sticks.
