How to Make Barbecued Turkey On A Bun

  1. Heat 1/2 cup pineapple juice in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Increase heat to medium-high. Add 1 lb ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until lightly browned, about 7-10 minutes.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup tomato paste, 1/2 cup water, 2 tablespoons yellow mustard, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder.
  5. Pour the tomato mixture over the cooked turkey. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
  6. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened.
  7. Serve the barbecued turkey on toasted whole-grain slider buns. Garnish with your favorite toppings, such as coleslaw or pickles.
