Hold the Tomatoes Please! Turkey BBQ


I love BBQ as much as the next person, but sometimes I just don’t feel like tomatoes! Give me some shredded turkey, celery, onion, just enough sauce to moisten it, slap it on a bun and I’m there!
Does this qualify as BBQ to you? Let me know in a comment below!


Turkey BBQ Hold the Tomatoes Please!

We always called this “white” turkey BBQ because its anything but plain!

1 lb turkey tenderloin, cut into strips
2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup celery chopped
1/2 cup onion chopped
2 Tbsp cornstarch dissolved in 2 tablespoons water
chicken bouillon cubes optional
Salt and pepper, to taste

1. Add turkey and broth to a 3-quart saucepan and bring to a boil.

2. Reduce heat to medium-low, add celery, and onion. Simmer until turkey is thoroughly cooked, about 8 minutes, check at 5 minutes you don’t want to overcook it!

3. Remove the turkey to a plate and fork shred.

4. Taste the broth. Add cornstarch (and bouillon if necessary) and bring to a boil. Boil stirring constantly until you reach the desired thickness.

5. Add the shredded turkey back to the pot. Stir and heat thoroughly.

6. Put some on your favorite bun or roll or eat plain!
