Roasting your own turkey breast at home is easy, fast, affordable, and the quality won’t just rival your favorite deli, but will probably surpass it. Enjoy!

Turkey Sandwiches are an excellent source of Turkey Sandwiches, especially chef Jon's Turkey Sandwiches

"You could add a little bit of cayenne - which I didn't do"
Whose hands am I looking at?

"Chef John has another video out." "I'll get the cayenne."

You are after all the host of your deli style turkey roast

"Yes you do need that much seasoning" should be something every culinary teacher tells their students on day 1.

I've honestly never thought about making deli meats but this looks so easy I might just give it a try!

[danconroy]

Made this for sandwiches for the week, And WOW those extra seasonings make a huge difference. Thanks Chef John!

I really like how Chef John likes to keep everything neat and tidy as he goes along.. Removing any stray off looking cuts of the cooked turkey, for better presentation on camera. So dedicated ! ;-)

It's always great when Chef John graces my feed with a new video

I love cooking a turkey breast all year long. I thought I was the queen of roasting turkey. Yet Chef John presents some helpful tips to make it even better!

[EvilPhantasm]

I'm definitely gonna make this. Nothing better than a turkey club made with fresh cooked turkey.

[HudsonStillwater]

I've made this several times following Chef John's recipe closely. Delicious, easy to make, sort of a can't miss recipe. Having a meat thermometer to test the internal temperature of the turkey is very helpful.

Your voice never gets old . Very entertaining as I work. Looking into making homemade deli meat. Thank you

This is the best recipe for roast turkey I have ever tried. I'm totally sold - cooked a whole breast and it hardly lasted a day. Moist and packed with flavor. I usually have to douse turkey leftovers with salt, pepper and whatever else comes under hand. Made a cold turkey on rye with just butter. Something so simple is just simply the best!

That was increadible! I made this turkey chef John and it's so much delicious that I can't stop commenting to myself on how joyful I am.
Everything is just perfect except that maybe as for my kids I'd rather ad even a bit less of a black papper because even an amount of it alone mentioned in this recipe is enough to make this dish spicy.
Just to mention that I made it with just a raw piece of 1.5kg cut off of the whole 3kg turkey half breast, no skin, no bone.|
Thank you so much for this recipe!

Please do a whole series about homemade deli meats!

Glad to see the freakishly small wooden spoon make an appearance.

Damnit, I had to start over with a fresh one because I poked 55 times.
