Oo.. you **** right, I'm cooking.

Tabasco Red Sauce is what I use. Nothing else crosses my mind.

I mean, you don't have to use that sauce. You can try whatever variety/style/brand you want to.

I've never cooked with yogurt before. What dose that do? Or is just for flavor?

The turkey is lean. When it is grounded down and then mashed into burger patties, it easily falls apart. The plain yogurt acts as a glue to hold the patty together.

It also supplies a contrast of taste with the dill seasoning.

It's good... try it!

Oh the green Tabasco is awesome too. It?s not as hot but it has an even better flavor.

Tabasco is the cornerstone of any nutritious meal.

I especially love it on eggs and in my grits.

Yeah... it's not too bad.

Of the weaker hot sauces, I like Frank's Red Hot. I love it especially on my greens: collards and turnips, black eyed peas, crowder peas, and chicken livers.

Goooood!

 

[emkay64]

The chipotle tobasco is really good too, and so is Frank's extra hot.

I'm definitely trying that next time I decide to cook (fridge full of leftovers). I LOVE ground turkey and buy ground beef once every six months, if that. I got a nifty make your own hotsauce kit for Xmas this year. I'll make some to go with these delicious burgers.

The original Louisiana hot sauce can't be beat. Simple, purer flavor. Need more heat add jalapenos.

I'll make this tomorrow. The only thing I will change is add 2 or 3 jalapenos.

Nobody but me is into the spicy **** at my house but I love ground turkey too. My wife can make a kick *** spaghetti sauce but I of course have to spice my own plate up.

Has anybody seen the Tims Cabainro chips? The halipino chips are fantastic but these Cabainro's are an awesome change!

That's it...

I'm moving you, Emkay, and Ali down here and into my house.

Oh yeah... I always up the ante on the hot sauce and jalapenos.

Ain't tasty until it's clearing my sinuses.

Some bacon slices sound good also.
