Sliced Roasted Turkey Breast", "2 Slices of Texas Toast (Crust Trimmed)", "4 slices of Crispy Bacon", "2 Roma Tomatoes, Sliced in Half", "Paprika, Parsley", "(Honestly, having traveled across Kentucky East-West, North-South, I can tell you that you're not likely to get the ""original"" sandwich described in this Louisville Hotel's recipe in most places. Substitute shaved, smoked ham (more prevalent) AND use shaved, smoked turkey as indicated here, a couple of English Muffins that have been split and toasted instead of Texas toast, a couple of slices of red, ripe tomato, and a bath of cheddar cheese sauce from a jar heated in a microwave for the Romano sauce, and you'll get much closer to the bubbling, fresh from the broiler, roadside restaurant ""Hot Brown"" I enjoyed in my travels in Kentucky."].

Yes, Kentucky Hot Brown falls under the Meat & Poultry category and is a great choice for this type of meal.
