Before You Cook

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using ground turkey, cook until patties reach minimum internal temperature, 6-8 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Roast the Fries

    Cut potatoes into 1/4"-thick fries and pat dry. Place fries on prepared baking sheet and spray generously with cooking spray. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer.

    Roast in hot oven until lightly browned, 25-30 minutes, tossing fries once halfway through.

    Carefully remove from oven.

    While fries roast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Candy the Bacon

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add bacon to hot, dry pan and cook until crisp, 2-3 minutes.

    Add brown sugar and stir often until sugar melts and coats bacon, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer bacon to a plate to cool.

  3. 3

    Make Aioli and Form Burgers

    Stem and mince tarragon.

    In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, 1 tsp. tarragon (to taste), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.

    In another mixing bowl, combine ground beef and a pinch of salt and pepper. Form mixture into two equally-sized patties, about 5" in diameter.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Summertime, and the grilling is easy! To grill this burger, heat grill to medium. Follow same instructions, grilling until browned and beef reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add patties to hot, dry pan. Cook until lightly charred and patties reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side.

    Remove from burner. Add cheese and cover. Let melt, 1-2 minutes.

    While patties cook, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Heat Buns and Finish Dish

    Heat buns to your preference using a toaster or microwave.

    Alternatively, place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add buns, cut side down, to hot pan. Toast until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping bottom bun with half the mustard (remaining is yours to use as you please!), arugula, patty, candied bacon, then top bun. Serve aioli with fries. Bon appétit!
