One of my goals this fall was to attempt to cook a turkey...my mom ended up making the turkey this year and my boyfriend's family had a fish fry for Thanksgiving so I thought my moment was shot. However, I love turkey and don't mind eating it after Thanksgiving! So, that's what I set out to do and of course it was made in a crockpot. I had my parents over for dinner and this was a total hit. I was so worried I would mess this up but it is seriously so simple there is NO WAY to ruin this turkey. Have fun with it, use other spices if you wish!
Ingredients:
4-5 lb Turkey Breast
3 Stalks/Ribs Celery (chopped into 2 in. pieces)
1 Carrot (cut into 2 in. pieces)
Garlic Powder
Kosher Salt
Coarse Black Pepper
Chop up all of your veggies and place them in the bottom of your crockpot.
Wash and pat dry your turkey breast and place on top of veggies. Sprinkle with Garlic, Salt, Pepper to taste.
That's it! Set your crockpot on Low for 4-5 hours and leave it alone! Internal temp MUST reach 165 before consuming. If you want that "crispy" skin you would get from roasting, feel free to throw it under the broiler for a few minutes to toast it up once it is done cooking.
Enjoy!
