Turkey Breast — Hickory-Smoked & Dry-Cured
Papa’s leaner legend: tender, naturally smoked and packed with protein.
Our hickory-smoked turkey breast is made from carefully trimmed boneless turkey breast using traditional dry-curing techniques. Lightly seasoned and smoked over real hickory wood, it delivers a clean, savory flavor and a tender texture without heaviness or excess fat.
Previously sold as Turkey Balyk. Same recipe, same process, new name.
Not Your Usual Deli Turkey
This is a whole-muscle cut, not a pressed or formed loaf. In the Eastern European tradition this style is known as balyk: the breast is slowly cured and gently smoked, which gives it a concentrated flavor and a firm, sliceable texture.
Our version is lean, protein-rich and ready to enjoy straight from the pack.
How It’s Made
We start with premium boneless turkey breast, lightly season it with a delicate blend of spices, then dry-cure and smoke it over natural hickory wood. This slow process builds flavor while keeping the meat tender and clean-tasting.
The result is a dry-cured turkey breast with a mild smokiness, balanced seasoning and no unnecessary additives.
How to Enjoy It

Slice it thin for charcuterie boards

Enjoy it as a high-protein snack

Right for everyday meals and for entertaining.
