Smoked turkey/chicken burgers

[WoodlawnSmoker]

I ground up a combination of turkey thighs and chicken breasts to smoke some burgers.  I found a Tori Avey recipe that we quite enjoyed, the mixture is very moist so the final product ended up moist and not dried out.  They had a bit of a kick to them too, I topped with tomatoes, mustard and a splash of hot sauce.

I cooked at 220 F, gave them two hours of cherry smoke and took them to an IT of 165 F.  Quite nice, I'll try them again.
