This turkey burger gets its name from using jalapeno peppers and salsa to give it zing. These burgers combine ground turkey with pork sausage for another layer of flavor. The ground pork adds juiciness and flavor to these turkey burgers. When using jalapeno peppers, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly or use kitchen gloves to protect yourself.
