- This wonderfully rich and flavorful open-face sandwich originated at the Brown Hotel in Louisville, KY and remains a favorite of many. It is topped with a Mornay sauce and finished under a broiler. Featuring turkey, bacon and tomatoes, this sandwich delivers a big taste!

I discovered your channel just a few days ago and took the plunge to make this for the first time for my family today. It was irresistible. My 19 year old son, and I quote, says it's "one of the top five things I've ever eaten". My 11 year old daughter asked for seconds. I made a vegetarian version with mushrooms instead of turkey and bacon for my vegetarian-ish 16 year old son, who loved it very much. My poor husband will have to wait until he gets home from work to have some!
Thank you SO MUCH! -not just for this recipe, but for all the delightful recipes and for the warm company of your channel. I wish the both of you were my neighbours! My Polish grandmother lived in Detroit for most of the 70s and I visited her often, and so much of your channel is familiar and just plain wonderful to me.
Thank you, sohcahtoa1970, for your note and we are so glad you like our channel!! Also glad to know the Hot Brown recipe went over big at your house - that is quite a compliment from your son!! Thank you for watching and being a part of our experience and it's nice that it makes you think of time you spent visiting your Polish grandmother...family and food make for great memories!
Kevin and Ralph, not only do I love the recipe for Hot Brown, but the History Lesson as well. Thanks for enriching us! Regards......
Theresa Schnable You're welcome, Theresa - thanks for watching!
This is a receipt from my childhood. We made it at home in Virginia, and we were always told that it was a receipt from the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky, that the chef whipped up for a late-night meal for the musicians who performed there. I seem to recall that the sandwiches were layered bread, turkey, bacon and tomatoes with the sauce over all of it and that they were broiled on individual oven-proof plates. Then, a little paprika and parsley were sprinkled on top. This video brings back memories.
Thanks for sharing that Ron, and for watching!! I hope to try the original someday in Louisville!
Looks pretty much on point and delicious! As a KY native, I love a good Hot Brown. The only difference is the traditional Hot Brown uses Texas Toast vs. Ciabatta and the bacon in slices vs. crumbled. Very minor differences! The Brown Hotel is still around and a wonderful place to visit when in Louisville. Thanks for sharing!
Emily M Thanks, Emily! I'm going to go to the Brown Hotel one of these days and try the original!
another winner! thx for sharing!
moon lily You're welcome!!!
Derby Pie seems like the logical next recipe to go with the quintessential Kentucky dish of the hot brown
abcsd1254 Thanks for the great idea!!
This used to be served without tomatoes, but also ham at the upstairs restaurant in Milwaukee at one of the big stores, when I was a child. It was called a White House sandwich.
For years I have made my own, but not for awhile.
Thanks for the reminder. I'll have to make it again soon!
Hi Kathleen - thank you for the history on this sandwich! Hope you make one again! Thanks!
Kevin I can tell you hit one out of the park,your expression is classic!!
HA! Thanks - I guess you could tell how much I loved this sandwich!! Thanks for watching!
The Brown Hotel is most definitely alive and very well at the corner of Broadway & Fourth. It remains one of the city's premiere luxury hotels. And, yes, one can still get an authentic Hot Brown there!
Hi David! Thank you for the information on The Brown Hotel! I would love the opportunity to see it in person and enjoy a meal there! I'm putting it on my list of destinations! Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood and when you do visit, another vintage hotel is our great Seelbach Hotel, with some (as legend holds) ties to "The Great Gatsby." Love your videos!!
@@davidminton5176 Thanks!
We love these in Louavul 😜. You did a great job.
Wicked! I would love to see a video of the house and its retro goodness,
Hi Kevin and Ralph, I made this sandwich last week for the first time. It won't be the last! Amazing taste! Thanks so much.
Brenda Leuschen Farkas You're welcome, Brenda! Thank you for letting us know you enjoyed the recipe!!
LOVE IT !!! Thank you
You're welcome, Rose!
I was just wondering what you use to clean your stoves. They always look brand new.
Love you channel have been watching you both for a few years now.
Thanks in advance,Mary
Really looks yummy! I've never heard of this sandwich before. This would be sensational for a brunch! Must try. Cheers!
Adam Bryan Yes - it would be a great brunch item! Hope you can try it soon! Thanks, Adam!
Hey guys. Your Hot Brown reminded me of Miller and Rhoads Dept Store Tea Room and their Missouri Club, very similar. Created during the days of hats, gloves, and "ladies that lunch" in the South. Thanks for the memories ! Chip.
Hi Chip! So many of those old department store dining rooms were terrific - and many had their own specialties! Thanks for sharing the memory of Miller and Rhoads!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for making this. I've been hoping that you would make this and I love the idea of making this in casserole form. I am going to try it just the way you made it.
Scott Postin You're very welcome, Scott! Thanks for watching and I hope you get to make your Hot Brown casserole soon!
Love the Farberware saucepan! My grandfather worked for Farberware in the 1940's. Some of the pieces are stamped Bronx NY USA on the bottom, others are NYC USA. I don't think I know this stove, was there a stove swap video I missed? As always, thanks for your great recipies!
***** Thanks, Billy! This stove was installed in May, it's a 1953 Kelvinator. There's a video somewhere on the channel. Those old Farberware pots are terrific - very good quality!
What a delight and that's even an understatement! I
Michael Shank Thanks, Mike!!
Gentlemen. Now that looks really good. I think I'll go to the store right now and get some turkey. Thanks for sharing.
Dave Thurmond You're welcome, Dave!!
Thanks a lot. I just came from the store with some fresh sliced turkey. Now I GOTTA go back for the other ingredients. BTW, I love the pot you used for the sauce. Vintage? I want one just like it.
jimsher9880 Thanks, Jim! Sorry to send you back to the store ;-) The sauce pan is an old Farberware that I've had for years...does a great job!
Looks delicious 😋
It was! Thanks, Joanna!
I like you're videos the food looks good
Chistopher Winston Thanks, Christopher!!
Oh my goodness, this looks soooooo amazingly good! I have never heard of this sandwich before but I am going to make it for sure. i have one question, by just putting it under the broiler does the sandwich get hot all the way through? Thanks Keven and Ralph for yet another winner!
Janina S. You're welcome, Janina!!
Wow how amazing does that look! My friend who has a channel on here and is from the south has made this also and when I saw her make it I almost died.. I love your version with the tomatoes, it looks so delicious and you are right, it should be illegal. Thank you guys
FitAnge S Thanks - it's not "light" lunch but is it ever good! Best to you!
Can you give a link to her channel, please? Thanks!
I will make this too!!! Your apron is right on for this October 🤗❤️🎃
Thanks, Rose!
This looks deelish! next one of your recipes to try.
Thanks for watching - hope you give it a try!!
I use to go to this restaurant in Naples on 5th Avenue (I can't remember the name of it) 25-30 years ago and they served a wicked hot brown.
+IgnoranceIsNotBliss Thanks so much for watching - I wonder if the place in Naples is still there?
Cavalcade of Food Not sure. I haven't been down that way for a very long time. My husband works down that way every now and again (mostly in Ft. Myers though). If I could remember the name of the place, he could probably tell me if it is.
What a great twist on the traditional hot turkey sandwich! I just roasted up a 16 lb turkey last night, and I'll bet it would be delicious with this recipe. Thanks for sharing, guys! :)
***** You're welcome!! Hope you give it a try with your left over turkey!!
Cavalcade of Food I plan to do just that in the next day or two. I'll have to tweak it a bit based on what I have in my fridge and pantry, though. Hope you won't mind. I'll try to post a video if I remember to do that, too. :)
That is the exact same stove as my Mom-Mom's! I have assisted in the preparation of many epic meals on that stove. Love seeing this!
+Kkryno Knikked She was epic--I was a minion! ;)
Any chance you could put a list of ingredients and the recipe in the video description? I am not the best cook but want to give this one a try.
Ohhhh....,this is so easy to make ,and looks sooo delicious ! I will try this recipe , thank you Kevin and Ralph .
Sylvia Fischer You're welcome!
Well fellas once again you have introduced me to a recipe I have never had, nor heard of! Looks terrific!! Thank you for sharing.
Debbie Wright Glad you like this one, Debbie!!
Looks so amazing! Would you guys please show us how you make potato salad? I'm from the south, and usually make a mayo and mustard version with sour cream, a bit on the spicy side. Would love to try something different. Thanks so much, Pat & Eric
norfolk03 Hi Pat & Eric! Thanks for watching - we will put potato salad on the list! We make it with a vinaigrette. Your version sounds good!
Thanks, so does yours! Can't wait!
That looks sinfully delicious! Great idea to make it as a casserole. I've heard of a hot brown but have never tried one. Thanks for sharing!
snookie65 You're welcome, Snookie! The casserole version is easier for a crowd. Thanks for watching!
There is a web site for the Brown Hotel in Louisville, with the recipe for the Hot Brown Sandwich, so it is still in existence!
It would be great to order this sandwich at the Brown Hotel and try the original! Thanks for watching!
It was invented in 1926 by Fred Schmidt at the Brown Hotel for the late night 20's crowd. Everyone has their own version.
Thanks for the history of this sandwich and for watching!
Oh boy... I'm in trouble.. Another 5 pounds to gain!!!! DELICIOUSNESS TO THE MAX!!!! Love you both!!!
Marguina Fernandez LOL!! Thanks, Marguina!! Sending love back to you!
I have always wondered. Is heavy cream like whipping cream that is 35% or does 10 -18% coffee cream suffice? Any cream I always purchase in Canada just shows the percentage and does not say heavy. That looks so delicious.
***** I'll reply to that. Heavy whipping cream in the U.S. is around 36%. You can also make a white sauce with any kind of milk but it won't be nearly as sinfully delicious.
***** Thanks for watching! Heavy cream in the US is sometimes labeled "Heavy Whipping Cream." You could use the coffee cream, but it might have a thinner taste - the higher the fat content the richer the sauce!
The original had french fries stuck into the top
Hi Mark - I wasn't aware of that...the fries would put this sandwich over the top! Thanks!
Hey guys, what's not to love? Heavy cream, butter, cheese, bacon and bread! The turkey, tomato and the rest is basically just decoration :-) LOL
This sounds like it would be a great way to use up left-over Thanksgiving turkey, although I'd probably have to spend a couple of extra hours at the gym to compensate. I'm sure it would be worth it!
Howard Baltazar Hi Howard - I think it would be worth an hour on the treadmill for this one! Thanks for watching!
Ralph you making me dizzy with the camera !.
What kind of cheese did you put on top ? Was it romano also ?
Yes - the cheese on top was more shredded romano. Thanks for watching!
My goodness! I HAVE to make this. The wifey is gonna love it. Thank you so much for these videos. Keep them coming, guys. :)
MMM.
Camera work is terrible. Stopped watching.
