All Purpose Poultry Rub

This all-purpose poultry rub has all the goodness of a basic chicken rub, with a bit of chili powder for earthiness and a splash of paprika for color. Simple, unique, and delicious. You have the option of using this mixture as a dry rub, a wet rub, or adding this seasoning mixture to sauces and marinades.

Ingredients:

–Coarse Salt: Kosher or Sea salt
–Onion Powder
–Dried Parsley
–Black Pepper: Fine, medium, or coarse ground for the pepper enthusiast
–Paprika (not smoked): Look for a sweet or plain variety
–Chili Powder: Mild or ancho
–Dry Mustard
–Herb de Provence: Gives this rub a floral and herbal note
–Celery Salt
–Garlic Powder: Or granulated garlic
–Allspice: A nice spiced undertone without the robust flavors of cinnamon.

Use and Storage

-Use this all-purpose poultry rub on chicken, whole or pieces, and wings. If using on turkey, double the recipe to make enough seasoning. This rub works  great on game hens and pheasant as well.

-Make a large batch and store the rub in a tightly closed jar in the cupboard for easy access. Scoop out what you need, to keep the the remaining rub contaminant free.

-To use: Apply rub onto the poultry of choice. If cooking a whole chicken or turkey, work the rub under the breast skin.

Tip:

-This can easily be made into a wet rub by adding a tablespoon or two to the rub mixture. Form into a loose paste to make spreading easier.

-For turkey, combine this rub with one stick of unsalted butter and slather all over the bird and under the breast skin. If you plan to wet brine the turkey, omit the salt in this rub. Replace the celery salt with  1 1/2 teaspoons of pulverized celery seed.
