Southwest Turkey Burgers

Whole turkey should be cooked until the thigh temperature reaches 180 degrees


A 3 ounce serving of bonless, skinless turkey breast contains 26 grams of lean protein, 1 gram of fat (0 are saturated fat). That’s 8% more protein than the same size serving of bonless skinless chicken breast or trimmed top loin beef!


The best restaurants serve the best food and every great chef will agree that great food begins with great ingredients. Ric Orlando’s New World Home Cooking, Madalin’s Table both renowned for superb cuisine serve Turkey from Northwind Farm.

North Wind Farm in Tivoli is a family farm. Richard Biezynski and his wife Jane and son Russell, raise free range chicken and turkey and organic grass-fed beef. When Richard started the farm in 1982 he knew he wanted to raise poultry and didn't see any sense in raising it any other way than naturally. At one time Biezynski tried to quit the business. But then the calls came. A loyal following implored him to get back into raising the free-range/natural chickens. Many cited the need for poultry their kids could eat without the severe reactions they had to commercially produced poultry. At first, Biezynski just filled a few orders here and there, but slowly he acquiesced. Besides wanting to provide natural food for like-minded folks, he wanted to foster his son's growing interest in farming. Biesynski himself became interested farming from spending summers at his grandparent's farm in Bell's Pond. Biezynski is proud to be raising natural food and does his best to practice sustainable agriculture. His fields are certified organic, as is his beef.
