Kentucky Hot Brown Dip (Oven-Baked, Party-Ready)

All the flavors of a classic Kentucky Hot Brown—turkey, bacon, and creamy sauce—baked into a scoopable dip.

If you love a Kentucky Hot Brown, you're going to love this dip.

It has all the flavors of the classic... turkey, bacon, cheese, and a creamy sauce... but in an easy, scoopable appetizer that's perfect for parties, game days, Derby gatherings, or holiday get-togethers.

This is one of those recipes that's simple to throw together and always one of the first things to disappear. I like serving it with toasted baguette slices, but pretzel chips work just as well.

Serve it hot from the oven and watch it vanish.
