Default What's the secret for good turkey burgers?

I bought a bag of these for Angela to try. Jenni-O brand. Frozen. They
come 2 patties back to back with paper in between.

I could *not* get the paper out. Was I supposed to have defrosted them
first? This is why I hate the frozen hamburger patties. Luckily I can buy
really good pre-cooked hamburger patties at Costco. But not turkey ones.

Eventually I got the paper out as they cooked but they didn't cook well at
all. As soon as a thin layer had cooked it just peeled off of the frozen
part. It was like cooking a pound of frozen ground beef where you scrape
the cooked part and a layer of cooked stuff comes off. Only I wasn't
scraping. It just came off.

I am not sure I will buy these again. She said they were okay. Just okay.
Said she thought they might need ketchup. I have never liked ketchup with
my meat unless it is meatloaf and then I like it mixed in and baked over the
top. But I really prefer chili sauce. But I digress.

So anyway... What did I do wrong? I have 10 more patties left and I'd like
them to come out as patties and not assorted sized chunks and pieces.

Thanks.
