TURKEY PATTY MELT

Steps:

• For the turkey patties: In a large bowl, combine the turkey, ricotta, sage, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon and sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Divide into 4 equal patties and press them into 1/4-inch-thin rounds.
• Heat a cast-iron griddle pan to medium-high heat.
• Add the canola oil and sear the patties on the first side until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until cooked through.
• For the sandwich build: Place a slice of Swiss cheese on each piece of bread, then a turkey burger, followed by about 1/4 cup Caramelized Onions. Place the top piece of bread on and then butter each side of the sandwich.
• Griddle each side over medium heat until golden, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. If you have a metal bowl, cover the sandwiches so they steam a bit and the cheese will melt faster. Serve with good ol' yellow mustard if you like and a big pile of oven fries.
• Heat a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil, let the butter mel,t and then add in the onions and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and then cover the pot and lower the heat to medium-low.
• Let the onions sweat, steam and soften for 10 to 15 minutes. Uncover the pan and let the onions cook for about an hour, checking on the onions frequently and stirring.
• Once the onions are fully caramelized, and a deep golden color, add the sherry and scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the thyme, season with salt and pepper and set aside.

TURKEY PATTY MELT

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, season with some salt and pepper, and cook until golden, about 7 minutes. Put in a bowl and set aside. Wipe out the skillet and add another tablespoon of oil. Season the turkey patties with salt and pepper, and cook in the remaining oil until well browned, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet. Wipe out the pan.
• Divide the onions among 4 bread slices, and top with a slice of cheese, a patty, another slice of cheese, and a slice of bread. Spread the top and bottom of the sandwiches with some butter. Heat the cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwiches, in batches if needed, turning once, until lightly browned and the cheese melts, about 2 minutes per side. Halve the sandwiches and serve with cranberry sauce, if desired.

TURKEY REUBEN

Steps:

• For the 18,000 Island dressing: Roughly chop the pickled jalapeños and Quick Pickles and add them to the mayonnaise in a large bowl. Add the ketchup, mustard, granulated garlic, salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine and set aside.
• For the reubens: Preheat a griddle over low heat. Butter one side of each piece of bread and place butter-side down on the griddle. Toast until browned. Meanwhile, add the turkey to the griddle in piles to warm. Add the sauerkraut in 2 separate bundles to the same griddle. Spoon a generous amount of dressing on top of the sauerkraut and cover each with 2 slices of Swiss cheese. Cover with a lid or large inverted bowl to warm and allow the cheese to melt, about 30 seconds. Add the Quick Pickle brine to the griddle and cover to allow the cheese to steam and fully melt.
• Place the sauerkraut on top of the turkey, then remove it to a slice of toasted rye. Top with a second piece of toasted rye. Slice in half on the diagonal and plate the sandwich on top of sweet potato fries to prevent the bottom of the sandwich from steaming, and to catch any drippage. Enjoy warm.
• Add the vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds, salt, garlic, bay leaf and 1/2 cup water to a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook until the sugar has dissolved, then add the cucumbers and dill to a heatproof container and pour over the pickling liquid. Let sit for at least 10 minutes.
