What if the breast was thawed? -
I don't usually care for savory foods that are sweet. Does the 1/8 cup of sugar make much of a difference?

I did something very similar to this recipe for Thanksgiving. It was fabulous! I will probably never ever make a bone-in oven turkery again. It was the most flavorful, and tender turkey ever. There were NO leftovers after my group of 6 ate. It was heaven! It would be great to make anytime of year and will be something I continue to do quite often. SO EASY and YUMMY! -
Family loved the gravy and the turkey was very tender. I thought the rosemary was a bit overpowering. I will try this again with tarragon. -
Made very tender sliced turkey which the family enjoyed. Honestly, I didn't think it had much flavor, it just tasted like turkey. Made exactly as stated using a standard-sized (3 1/2 or 4?qt) crockpot for 8 hours. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

This was a hit; the kids asked if this was an early Thanksgiving! I followed this exactly except we had a 5-7 lb frozen turkey breast with bone. Luckily I have a large oval crockpot. I let this cook for 10 hours on low since I was late getting home. It was delicious, very juicy and no gravy needed. It fed 6 of us and I have few extra cups turkey. I made some stove pot stuffing, roasted red potatoes, steamed broccoli and cranberry sauce. Yum!

I used fresh turkey and cooked it for 5 hours - delicious, easy, and oh, so moist! Thanks!

I had a three pound turkey breast and was looking for something different to do with it. This fit the bill perfectly. It was delicious. I looked for a substitution for the orange juice, since I'm allergic to oranges, but couldn't find a satisfactory one. So I went with the orange juice anyway. The only change I made was to use a teaspoon of Italian Herb Seasoning in place of the rosemary and thyme. I didn't have any rosemary and often find it overwhelms the flavors. It worked fine. The meat was tasty and moist. The flavor was different than usual, but not bad at all. It's quite good. I'll be making this again for sure. Thanks for sharing. (Edited to correct spelling errors.)
