Has anyone tried the Honeysuckle White bone in turkey breasts?

I bought one today at Aldi's. There will be just 3 of us for Thanksgiving this year because our son has to work so I thought a huge turkey would be too much.

A breast would make it so much easier but only if it tastes good,lol!

Anyone used them before?

Lynne, I don't know if this will be of help to you but my mom LOVED Honeysuckle turkey breasts and she was not easy to please when it came to holiday meals.  We always had a Honeysuckle and I am going back to my Aldi to see if they have any of these as I would love to have one for my Thanksgiving!

They are excellent.  Only brand my mother ever purchased for her dinners.  I was at our local grocery yesterday and they had Honeysuckle White turkey breast on sale for $1.69 a pound.  I found a seven pound one and purchased it for our Thanksgiving meal.  I think they are better than Butterball.  Good luck!

Thanks so much, sounds positive!

I'll be very pleased if everyone is happy with it because it's so much easier than a whole turkey. I always hate having to break down the turkey carcass after dinner when I'm tired and just want to relax,lol.

Tempted to cook it this weekend to try and then buy another 😀

That's what we always make Honeysuckle or Butterball turkey breast. I always put a couple pats of butter under the skin on each side, rub down with olive & spinkle with Penzey's Poultry seasoning or Herbes De Provence. YUM!!! I either cook on the grill indirect cook method, on the smoker or in the Nesco.

You will not be disappointed!!  The most moist & flavorful turkey breast EVER.  I have been cooking for alot of years & have tried alot of brands, but Honeysuckle is the best by far.

I have purchased several and have never beeen disappointed. I have never cooked a whole turkey. We always have turkey breast for Thanksgiving and Honeysuckle is very good.
