Preparation
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, quinoa, garlic salt, and ground pepper. Mix together until well combined. Press a golf-ball sized ball of turkey meat into your hands, use your finger to press a well into the center of the burger, and fill with bleu cheese crumbles and bacon. Pat the turkey to hide the cheese. Gently press into a thick patty. Repeat until all the turkey has been stuffed and pressed into patties.
Cook patties on a hot griddle over medium heat until the center of each burger is cooked through. (Sometimes I find it works well to cover the griddle with a lid to ensure complete and even cooking).
In a small bowl, mix together the honey, mustard, barbecue sauce, and mayonnaise. Serve cooked patties on a bun with the honey-mustard sauce and arugula.
