I know you have probably had some variation of this western style burger but... what makes this one unique, is using turkey meat and putting the bacon and the bacon grease inside the patties. OMG so good. Unfortunately, I can't take credit for this recipe... This is the genius of my step sister Stephanie who actually won a burger patty contest using this recipe! It really is that good. Enjoy!
