Ingredients

1 tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 c. Extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lb. 90 percent lean ground turkey
1 1/2 tbsp. canola oil
2 oz. crumbled blue cheese (about 1/2 cup)
4 burger buns
1 1/4 c. finely shredded Romaine lettuce
1 large ripe beefsteak tomato
1 ripe avocado
8 slice bacon

Instructions

To make the dressing, whisk together the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk in the olive oil.
Divide the meat into 4 equal portions (6 ounces each). Form each portion loosely into a 3/4-inch-thick burger and make a deep depression in the center with your thumb. Season both sides of each burger with salt and pepper.
Cook the burgers using the canola, topping each one with some of the cheese and a basting cover during the last minute of cooking.
Place the burgers on the bottom half of each bun. Toss the romaine with the dressing and arrange over the burgers. Top each with 2 slices of bacon, 2 slices of tomato, sliced of avocado, and additional blue cheese, if desired. Cover each burger with a bun top and serve immediately.
