I didn't have much luck with this recipe. You should double-check the weight of the turkey breast. The recipe calls for 4 pounds, but it appears in the video the breast halves were much larger. Overall, the results were delicious, but the smaller turkey breast I used (4 pounds) was WAY TOO SMALL for the amount of seasoning, resulting in an over-seasoned meat and sauce as well. I do want to try it again, but use a much larger turkey breast and cutting way down on the spices. That should do the trick!
I made this today and it’s absolutely delicious 😋. I’ve been smoking and grilling for close to 30 years and never had anything quite like it. This recipe is quite easy as well. Highly recommend especially if your tired of the same old BBQ. It’s on my rotation from now on!!! Well done America’s test kitchen 👍🏻👍🏻
Oh my goodness! That looks delicious! Definitely would like to try that yummy recipe! Love your cooking videos!
Toast your buns, it will make your Sammy much better
I love and enjoy the back and forth (joke) punches!
Check out wood pellet smoking tubes. less finicky and affordable
Those sandwiches look so delicious. Saving this a future recipe to make on our kettle grill.
Yummy!
Again, ladies, it irritates me to no end that you're attributing this to Tennessee when smoked poultry is a north Alabama thing, just like the white sauce you use. NoAL ain't good for much, but at least give it it's due. And horseradish has zero business in white sauce, to say nothing of the addition of lettuce.
One horrible white bun, but the cooking of the meat is excellent.
Finally a new video, not reposting old ones for ad revenue
Love these recipe videos. Thanks
Those sandwiches gives me an idea on how I can use my leftover chicken and turkey after the holidays. Thanks for sharing this recipe and may you all have a Very Merry Christmas with your families.
Beautiful farm🐎🐴🚜
It's the smoking that gives it the pulled pork look. How about a video on smoking just smoking like salmon 🐟 meats etc etc etc.
Man that looks good!
Fantastic ladies, looks nice and juicy..
For me the mayo ruins it, but I bet it'd be good with some other barbeque sauces.
I’m from East TN, and my family has been here for around 200 years. I’ve never heard of a TN pulled turkey dish of any kind. I have a feeling some carpetbagger made this up; not to mention a mayonnaise based barbecue sauce is about as un-Tennessee as it gets.
All the presenters on this channel are great but these two are my favorite.
Yum. I'm getting hungry. Time to think about supper.
I've done this recipe 2X (recipe available since August) using chicken breasts (butcher could not get the turkey) and with the white bbq sauce recipe it was over the top, best chicken I've had. I follow the recipe exactly except for the chicken replacement.
Here's a TIP…the white bbq sauce goes on EVERYTHING…poultry, fish, beef, pork, salads….everything. I make a batch enough so it's available 24/7. It adds amazing umami to food.
👍👍
Smoked turkey sandwich with Alabama white sauce
Girl's I love you but that's too much.
🦃 is gross but i watched cause i love u guys 😎
Hi girls, fantastically fantastical fantastic. Love sue. Beautiful British Columbia 🇨🇦 we love you.🙋🌹🌹
I cut a few corners and bought a Butterball Smoked Pre-cooked Turkey. Then steamed it in the oven @ 225 degrees for a couple of hours. Then shredded the meat, which came off very easy. Then I put the meat into a crock pot on low with a touch of chicken broth to keep it moist. The rest of the recipe, I followed to a tee…….including the white sauce. Served on buns, with shredded lettuce to 13 hungry relatives at Thanksgiving…….and it was a huge hit. Hats off to the America’s Test Kitchen crew…..this recipe will be repeated often!!!
Nice recipe ladies, i'm a 56 yr. old irishnan in Kentucky, we either smoke or deep fry our turkeys, if you eat them that way you will never want to eat a roasted/baked turkey again. I speak the truth. p.s. i like smoked turkey with 75/25% hickory to applewood, i like deep fried in peanut oil. You want to do either of these outside, do not want to smoke up the house, & definitely do not want a boil over on the deep fryer to start a fire in the house. Merry Christmas everyone !
Is it important that I mix the mayo and vinegar together before adding garlic and worster sauce? weird that you did.
This looks sooo good!! And an easy recipe too! ATK recipes really never fail 💕
I may have been born under a rock, but I was definitely born and raised in Tennessee, and I've never heard of this sandwich.
The perfect outdoor recipe for December!
Thank u for sharing. As always great job.. And I can do this.
You can't trust skinny chefs…
Yum!
Greetings from the Great State of Washington and the Pacific NorthWET; yes, it is raining now.
You can buy "smoker/wood" packages for the oven. Just have the fan on and the window(s) open.
Also, would have added a tbsp of relish to the mayo blend and a tiny amount of (to taste) some minced red onions with the lettuce for colour and an extra depth/kick.
Yummy! ❤ LOVE IT!
