Beemster Sweet & Smokey Turkey Burgers

Nothing like sweet September days.  Not too hot, not too cold - perfect weather to be outdoors for anything and everything.  This time of year make it so easy to want to continue that fabulous grill season. Whether  you're planning a tailgate or need a new burger after months of ordinary beef burgers,  this turkey burger fits the bill. It gets a little sweetness from barbecue sauce and a whole lotta smokey from Beemster Smoked Gouda.  Adding the cheese and barbecue sauce to the ground turkey gives it a flavor boost and keeps it perfectly moist.  Topping these burgers with more sauce and cheese just seals in all of the great flavor.  Best of all,  you only need 5 ingredients and 30 minutes to get these burgers on your table.
