Kentucky Sandwich?

Question

One time when I was watching the Food Network I saw a program which featured a sandwich that I believe was a specialty of Kentucky. I think it was called a " hot brown " and I remember it had turkey and I think bacon and was served warm. Does anyone have a recipe? It looked totally fattening and bad for you, but really yummy so I would like to try making one. I live in Canada and I've never heard of a recipe, or seen it offered on a menu anywhere.

Answer 1

Place toast in buttered 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish. Top each slice of bread with turkey and ham slice. Spoon white sauce over meat slices. Layer cheese, tomato and crumbled bacon over sauce. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
