"Juicy Lucy is my delight," the Grateful Dead once sang. (Or not; you'll have to Google to know for sure.) This Juicy Lucy is our delight, a take on the classic Minnesota burger preparation. Smoky, delicate Gouda is stuffed into a burger, which is joined by BBQ sauce and crispy fried onions. Macaroni salad served on the side, like a classic picnic, a day on a Minnesotan lake, or a parking lot before the Dead show. (Kids, ask your parents or grandparents.) Tip: When making patties, form a crater in bottom patty for cheese to rest in. This allows space around the edges for the top patty to form a good, tight seal. A tight seal is key for ensuring the cheese remains inside burger while cooking.

1 Cook Pasta and Prepare Ingredients
Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until al dente, 7-9 minutes.
Drain pasta in a colander, shaking off excess water. Rinse pasta with cold water to cool down. Set aside. Reserve pot; no need to wipe clean.While pasta cooks, quarter cheese slice.Trim ends off celery and cut into 1/4" dice. -
2 Form the Burgers
Combine ground turkey and a pinch of salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Form into four equally-sized patties.
Divide cheese between two patties. Place remaining patties on cheese-topped patties and seal edges by pinching lightly. A tight seal helps cheese stay in patties while cooking. -
3 Make the Macaroni Salad
Return pasta to reserved pot and add celery, mayonnaise, mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until coated. Set aside.
