It was okay. Didn't really have that Thanksgiving Turkey homemade taste. It kind of reminded me of Turkey you'd get from a cheap sandwich shop. Tender, yes, but flavor wise, I'd rather spend the time and do it right.

I followed the recipe exactly and found my turkey breast to be dry and salty. And I basted the crud out of that sucker! Could have been the gravy I used, but I've never had issues with that particular gravy before. If I were to make this again, I'd like to figure out a way to make this a little less salty.

I really wanted to try this recipe but when I went to the market I found that the turkey breasts were a little out of my budget. I had three whole chickens at home all ready so I just picked up the spices and a can of chicken gravy. other than that I followed the recipe to the "T" and it was wonderful. I had so much left over because my family consists of two adults and two small children. So I added 1 cup of water and a chiken bullion to the "gravy" and two more tablespoons of flour and 1/2 cup of cold water. I finished pulling the chicken off of the bone added that and between 2-4 cups of cooked rice. I did this to freeze and use later as a chicken and rice dish. of course I tasted it before I froze it and from now on I will serve this as a chicken and rice dish. I also can't wait to try it with the turkey!!!!!

I used a turkey breast without the bone and it turned out very dry! Make sure you use a bone-in. I could tell there was potential though.

This was a great recipe. This was my very first turkey and I made it for Easter. Everyone loved the flavors etc. I added lots of veggies and removed the skin. YUMMY!!! I will make this again.

This came out so good! Followed the directions exactly. The meat was falling off the bone! I did have to split the breast in half because it was to tall for my slow cooker. My husand requests it all the time now!

This was just wonderful, snd so easy! I left the skin on for added moistness, but took it off before slicing the turkey. I used a jar of gravy instead of canned, but it still didn't taste like homemade (hence 4 stars, not 5). But the turkey itself was so moist and tender! A 7-lb breast cooked to perfection in 5 hours. After slicing the meat, I returned it to the crock pot, where the gravy kept it warm and moist. Great with mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce, any time of year!

I must admit that I myself did not make this but my mother did and it was absolutely delicious! It was so moist and juicy we will definitely be slow cooking our turkeys more often!

Pretty good...We did not care for the taste of the canned "fake" gravy & would maybe someday try it again using chicken or turkey broth & use the drippings to make a traditional gravy. The turkey texture was pretty good and it was a very easy meal. I found the recipe to be accurate for the timing of the turkey.

8 hours was way too much for a turkey breast even with the skin on. I'm sure it would be fantastic after 4 hours in the crock pot.

I admit I was more interested in the concept of cooking a turkey breast in the slow cooker rather than the recipe itself, so I cooked mine with some minor changes. The amount of Worcestershire seemed excessive so I just used a few shakes. Didn't use flour, the sage, or the can of turkey gravy. I seasoned the breast with garlic pepper and a little poultry seasoning and laid a couple of bacon strips over the breast to help keep it moist and to flavor the gravy (I've always done this with my tradionally roasted turkey). Knowing that a lot of juices would be produced, I just threw in a portion of the bag of turkey gravy that came in the package. I found the stated cooking time WAY too long--I would think 6 hours on Low should me more than adequate, and next time I would check it even sooner. The turkey at 6-1/2 hours was cooked to a higher temperature than I would have preferred, but was still surprisingly moist. After I pulled the breast out to rest, I thickened up the gravy with a little cornstarch on the stovetop. The turkey was succulent and moist and sliced beautifully, and the gravy was rich and flavorful. This method will definitely be making a comeback.

I made it today and it was fabulous!! I left the skin on, used only 3 strips of bacon and left off the w.sauce. It fell off the bone and was very moist.

This was really good! I'm not sure what the bacon did for the turkey, but it didn't seem to hurt the taste of the turkey at all. Even with three people eating turkey, we still have plenty of leftovers. Yum!
