The Secret Behind Boar’s Head Ovengold Turkey’s Irresistible Flavor

As a seasoned deli lover, I thought I knew great turkey – until I tried Boar’s Head Ovengold Turkey for the first time. That first bite was a revelation. Boar’s Head has truly perfected the art of turkey roasting with their proprietary Ovengold process. In this article we’ll explore why Boar’s Head Ovengold Turkey stands apart and share a few pro tips for enjoying it.

A Unique Roasting Process Makes All the Difference

So what exactly is the Ovengold process? Boar’s Head roasts their turkeys low and slow to retain maximum moisture. While most companies rush the roasting process, Boar’s Head takes their time to let the natural turkey flavor develop fully The turkey breasts are seasoned with a special blend of aromatic spices selected to complement the natural flavor of the meat

But the key difference is that Boar’s Head roasts the turkey breasts in their own natural juices – no added water, broths or artificial flavors. The Ovengold process seals in the turkey’s natural goodness. You can taste the dedication to quality in every tender slice.

Crafted with Care for an Unbeatable Taste

From start to finish, Boar’s Head focuses on quality with their Ovengold Turkey. They use only premium boneless, skinless turkey breast meat raised without added hormones or steroids. The turkeys are fed a vegetarian diet and raised humanely.

Ovengold vs. Golden Roasted – Which is Best?

Many Boar’s Head fans wonder how the Ovengold Turkey compares to Boar’s Head Golden Roasted Turkey. They are both high-quality roasted turkey breast options. Here’s a quick rundown of how they differ:

• Flavor – Ovengold is seasoned with aromatic spices for a bolder, more savory flavor profile. Golden Roasted lets the natural mild turkey flavor shine.

• Color – Ovengold develops a rich, golden brown exterior during roasting while Golden Roasted has a light tan color.

• Sodium – Ovengold is 360mg per serving while Golden Roasted is slightly lower at 380mg per serving.
