Turkey patty calories come to 223 for one cooked 85 g patty and 262 per 100 g. The surprise is the calorie split: fat supplies 64% of the energy and protein only 32%, so this is not the lean pick the name suggests. Sodium, at 489 mg per patty, is the other number to watch.

One patty is 223 calories, a 4 oz patty is 296
A standard 85 g turkey patty lands at 223 calories, which is 11% of a 2000-calorie daily value. That is the size most frozen patties use. Step up to a 4 oz patty (113 g), the usual size for a homemade burger, and the count climbs to 296 calories, or 15% of the daily value. The patty looks only slightly bigger on the bun, but it carries about a third more calories.
Doubling up is where totals jump. Two 85 g patties come to 445 calories and 35.4 g of protein. Three reach 668 calories and 53.1 g of protein. Grill five for meal prep and the batch adds up to 1,114 calories and 88.5 g of protein, which is fine spread across several meals and a lot for one sitting.
The practical move is to weigh your patties once. Homemade patties drift easily from 85 g toward 113 g, and nobody notices the difference by eye. Once you know your usual size, logging gets easy. BodyPal can log a turkey patty from a photo, and knowing the weight tells you which serving to pick.
Fat supplies nearly two thirds of the calories
Per 100 g, a cooked turkey patty carries 20.8 g of protein, 18.8 g of fat and just 2.6 g of carbs. The grams of protein and fat look close, but fat packs more energy per gram. The result: fat supplies 64% of the calories, protein 32% and carbs only 4%. That split surprises people who reach for turkey because they expect it to be lean.
The numbers come from the USDA row for a chicken or turkey cake, patty, or croquette. That describes a formed, seasoned product, not plain ground breast. The fat level reflects the whole mix, so do not read these figures as turkey at its leanest.
Protein is still a real strength. One 85 g patty gives 17.7 g, which covers 35% of the 50 g daily value, and a 4 oz patty gives 23.5 g, or 47%. Saturated fat sits at 3.4 g per 100 g. Cholesterol comes to 125 mg per 100 g, set against a daily value of 300 mg.
Sodium is the row to watch
Each 85 g patty carries 489 mg of sodium, which is 21% of the daily value, while the same patty is only 11% of a day's calories. A 4 oz patty brings 650 mg, or 28%. Per 100 g the figure is 575 mg. In other words, sodium climbs faster than calories with every bite.
Stack patties and the total adds up quickly. Two patties reach 978 mg, three reach 1,466 mg, and five reach 2,444 mg, which is more than a full day's daily value from the patties alone. Add a bun, cheese, pickles and ketchup and a two-patty burger can take a big share of the day's sodium before any side dish shows up.
Set that against a plain beef patty at 75 mg per 100 g and the gap is obvious. Much of it comes from how a formed patty is made and seasoned. If you watch sodium, choose low-salt toppings and sauces, or shape and season your own patties so you control the salt.
Build the plate around fiber, not more fat
With 2.6 g of carbs, 0.5 g of sugars and 0.2 g of fiber per 100 g, a turkey patty brings almost nothing to the plate except protein and fat. That leaves the rest of the meal to fill the gaps. A whole-grain bun, a big salad, roasted vegetables or a side of beans adds the fiber the patty lacks and makes the plate more filling.
Because fat already supplies most of the patty's calories, go easy on adding more of it. Cheese, mayo and fried sides push the total up faster than the patty itself. A lettuce wrap or an open-faced bun keeps a single 223-calorie patty at the center of a lighter meal.
Packaged patties differ in seasoning and fat. Ball Park Flame Grilled Turkey Patty and Perfect Fit Selects Green Chili Turkey Patty are both listed on this page. Check their label rows rather than assuming they match the generic numbers above, especially for sodium.
How does turkey patty compare?
Here is how the turkey patty stacks up against chicken, beef and sausage patties, per 100 g and per usual serving.
Verdict: For the fewest calories per 100 g, turkey wins, edging out beef at 270, chicken at 287 and sausage at 325. For more protein with far less sodium, pick the beef patty, with 25.8 g of protein and just 75 mg of sodium per 100 g.
