Though turkey burgers and hamburgers have a lot in common and turkey burgers offer a worthwhile alternative to your classic ground beef burger, you shouldn't expect a turkey burger to taste exactly the same as a regular hamburger. The two types of meat have slightly different flavor profiles, with most people considering beef to have a stronger flavor than turkey. That said, if you're using turkey instead of beef in a recipe that calls for many ingredients and seasonings, the difference in flavor isn't really noticeable. That's particularly the case when using turkey with the same fat content as the beef a recipe calls for.
