Let's face it; turkey's got a rep. It's the ground beef alternative, it's good for you, it walks old ladies down the street and does its taxes on January 1. But this burger here isn't the kind Moms point to and say "why can't you be like him." The burger's the life of the party, with gooey cheese sauce on top, spicy crispy jalapeños adding a kicking crunch, and a bed of rich guacamole to sit on. This turkey burger's got a rep, too, a flavor rep.
