Kittencal's Juicy Crock Pot Turkey Breast

This was great! I love having turkey without having to heat up the kitchen in this weather. I omitted the oil, and added about a cup or so of water in the bottom of the crockpot. The 7 1/2 pound bone-in breast was done after 1 1/2 hours on high and 5 on low. The drippings made a nice gravy, as well. Served with mashed potatoes and Lemon Glazed Baby Carrots. Looking forward to hot turkey sandwich leftovers, too. Thanks for posting!

We thought this was quite delicious and the prep was very easy. With our 100+ degree weather, it was a bonus to not have to use the oven. The meat was very moist and tender and we loved the oniony flavor. Cold left-overs made great turkey sandwiches. Thanks, will make this again.

My entire family said it was GREAT! I did use a previously frozen boneless breast, but I had NO complaints! I cooked it on high for 1 hour and then on low for about 5 1/2 hours. I was skeptical, but now this will be the way I cook turkey breast from now on!

This one deserves 100 stars!!! I can't believe I made this in the crock pot! I made a 6 1/4 pound turkey (bone in) with skin on. I used olive oil rather than vegetable oil and I increased the seasonings. I was leery about the no-liquid thing and added 1/4 cup of water to the bottom of the crock (at Kitten's recommendation). I was also trying to figure out the appropriate timing since many people said this cooked way too fast and I have a pot that already cooks hot. I cooked this for 4.5 hours and it was PERFECTLY cooked...fall apart moist and HEAVENLY in flavor! I've always made great moist turkeys in the oven but this was off the charts in flavor and moistness! My husband and I thought if we could only find a crockpot that's 12 quarts, we'd never cook our turkey in the oven again at Thanksgiving. In fact, I'm not so certain we really need the full sized turkeys we've been buying and this may take the place of Thanksgiving turkeys in the oven from now on. DO NOT PASS THIS ONE UP!!! I will now be making this at least once a month. I'm in shock that I was able to do this in the crock. For those of you who actually eat the turkey skin...you may not like the texture/appearance of this. Something I'm sure could be rectified with a quick shot under the broiler. We don't eat the skin anyway so this was heaven. Thank you for the most incredible way of making turkey! A true winner here!

I followed this recipe-- except I used butter instead of oil . I also poured some chicken broth -- about 3/4 cup-- over the breast. WONDEFUL!! I will never make a turkey breast again in the oven-the turkey was very moist and the gravy was delish! Thanks kittencal for another great recipe.

This was good and easy to make. My turkey breast was only 3 1/2 pounds but I kept the other ingredients the same. I cooked it for 4 hours but it was a bit dry but I think I just cooked it too long. This had a wonderful flavor to it. I put red potatoes under the breasts and cooked everything together. Very nice. Thanks again Kit and get well soon!

This was excellent, and still is 4 days later. My turkey did not fit in the crockpot, and I put foil over the top like a reviewer suggested and cooked it in there the first hour and a half. I then wrote Kitten that that's what I was doing, and she was nice enough to hold my hand, and guide me thru roasting it the rest of the way in the oven instead (yes, I'm 60, and this was only my second try at fixing a turkey breast). I was told it would probably take 2 1/2 hours in the oven, BUT remember it had started cooking in the crockpot. I tested after about 1 1/2 hours or so, and it was done. I put it back for just a few minutes to brown, but was afraid it would be too dry. It was absolutely moist and delicious upon coming from the oven. I let it cool slightly, and put it in the fridge, so I wouldn't forget it and let it totally ruin. I warmed some pieces the next day, and it was delicious. I can't wait to get a larger crockpot. I want to try it exactly as written, BUT I can assure you if you put it in the oven, in a pan, and let it cook in there until it's done (like 2 1/2-3 1/2 hours for a 6 lb. turkey), it will be wonderful. Thanks, Kitten, for all the help on this one. I love(d) it.

Turkey was AMAZING!! I left it in crock pot for 6 hours, but the skin didn't get crispy enough for our liking, so I popped it inthe oven for 45 mins (with all juices from crock pot). Came out moist and awesome. Will make this again!! Thank u for posting!!

Very moist. I used turkey tenderloins instead of a whole breast. Hubby wasn't sure about the combination of onion soup mix and turkey but it worked. The flavor reminded me of pork instead of turkey too.

This is so delicious! Very juicy and flavorful. I added about 1/2 cup chicken stock and cooked for about 4 hours. I was worried about the saltiness of the onion soup mix, but this wasn't a problem for me.

No stars for now... I couldn't use the crock pot I was running out of time... so I grabbed melted butter... garlic powder and the dry onion soup mix... mixed it all together and basted the turkey with it. OMG that was awesome... thanks for the idea!!!!!!!!!! Added: I made this again... in the oven 325 and used Homemade Dry Onion Soup Mix Homemade Dry Onion Soup Mix. This is just totally awesome... Someday I may try it in the crock I don't know. But for now I love this... juice turkey brest every time!!! 10/15/09 Today is the day that I am trying it in the crock pot!
