  4. Place patties into the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set up.
  5. Preheat barbeque to medium heat. (350- 375°F) (175C-190°C). Oil grill to prevent sticking.
  6. Place burgers on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side. Or until turkey is cooked through and nice char marks are achieved.
  7. Remove the turkey burgers from the grill. Cool slightly and serve on buns with pineapple salsa. Garnish with burgers with lettuce, red onion and mayo if desired.
