Bray Gourmet Smoked Turkey Salad
Bray Gourmet was born from a simple yet innovative idea in 1979 when Sid Bray transformed leftover smoked turkey into a unique, flavorful spread. Over four decades later, we continue crafting our signature Smoked Turkey Salad using the same passion for quality and real ingredients. In 2016, we expanded operations with a USDA-certified kitchen to share our product with a broader audience, partnering with major retailers like Kroger, Costco, and Sam's Club. Our commitment to excellence remains unwavering, using hickory-smoked whole white meat turkey blended with premium herbs and spices. Every batch is dairy-free, gluten-free, and free from artificial additives, nitrites, or high-fructose corn syrup.Available in Original, Jalapeo, and Cajun varieties, our versatile spread caters to diverse tastes while maintaining keto-friendly nutritional standards. With a physical deli in Little Rock, Arkansas, and nationwide distribution, we combine small-business heart with large-scale accessibility. Our catering services extend this quality to events of all sizes, from corporate luncheons to casual gatherings. As a company rooted in Southern culinary traditions, we prioritize transparency in ingredients and preparation methods. Every purchase supports a legacy of innovation that began with a single creative act at a lakeside gathering.
