Wild Turkey Alfredo Cheese Dip

Wild Turkey Alfredo Cheese Dip… You know you want some.

This whole recipe started with a baggy full of left over smoked wild turkey. I was trying to decided on some appetizers that I could create with the left over meat, and my wife said “What about a dip?” Well, those 4-words got my mind motors turning. Next thing you know the TRAEGER was on and the idea was becoming reality.

This is the recipe I ended up with and frankly, I wish I has more leftover turkey.
