BBQ Chicken Pizza Turkey Burgers

I guess I should explain the title first. I took this idea from Food Network's site. I've never been a fan of turkey burgers because they don't taste like hamburgers! But then I realized that if you do it correctly, then a turkey burger shouldn't taste like a hamburger. You can make the turkey meat take on any flavor you want. And then you have a neat tasting something or another inside a hamburger bun. I make a BBQ chicken pizza that Spencer likes. So I tried to turn those flavors into a burger. The end result was good. Next time I will need to make some adjustments, but the overall idea is a keeper. Oh! And I got to use my grill pan for the first time. That was fun.

Ground turkey meat
Onion
BBQ sauce
Shredded cheddar cheese

There aren't any real measurements or directions to be had here. Just dice the onion and combine everthing together and form into patties. Last night I used too much BBQ sauce and the meat didn't hold shape well. I would suggest using a hot/spicy sauce (instead of mild or smokey) to give the burgers flavor. This would allow you to use less so that there will be less liquid in the mixture. I used one giant handfull of cheese.
