This holiday turkey burger from San Francisco-based burger chain Umami Burger sounds possibly even more mouthwatering than a homemade turkey dinner.

Just in time for Thanksgiving, Umami Burger is releasing its decadent holiday turkey burger, called 'The Holiday Bird.' The stacked burger is built on a charred turkey patty, topped with a [cornmeal stuffing patty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-castle-slider-stuffing-recipes) and then smothered in house-made turkey gravy, spicy-sweet ginger-cranberry chutney, seasoned Japanese yams and Umami signature fried sage. As if all of this wasn't enough to sell hungry Thanksgiving celebrators on the [holiday turkey sandwich](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/firehouse-subs-thanksgiving), Umami Burger is also donating $1 of the proceeds from each Holiday Bird to Meals on Wheels America.

With social media's power to generate hype around anything that fits into a current cultural moment, it's more rewarding than ever to come up with a specialty product to celebrate a seasonal change or major event.
