My all-time favorite sandwich meat is turkey. When my dad brought back two turkeys from a hunting trip, I knew I needed to make a solid roasted turkey recipe. You can use this roast turkey on sandwiches, soups, or just eating straight up. This recipe, coupled with my brine recipe, is tender and juicy and will satisfy your turkey cravings! I might even have a few recipes up my sleeve for you to use it in! Enjoy!
