- Add the ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and mustard. Continue cooking and stirring occasionally for an additional 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Notes
The potatoes are baked until tender prior to adding the turkey mixture. I typically start the potatoes in the microwave for 3-4 minutes then finish in the oven until tender.
