How to use Poultry Rub
Spice 101
Our Poultry Rub is crafted to enhance your favorite poultry dishes. This blend is built on a robust foundation of sage, thyme, marjoram, and rosemary, to which we've added the piquant touches of black pepper, garlic, onion, and celery. It's a salt-free mix, making it a versatile choice for seasoning not just poultry but also pork and can be a delightful addition to stuffing or even savory jams.
The use of herb-based rubs for poultry is steeped in culinary tradition, reflecting the lighter, more delicate flavors of birds like chicken and turkey. Historically, these herbs were chosen for their ability to complement the subtle flavors of the meat without overwhelming it. In Europe, particularly in Mediterranean cuisine, the use of marjoram and thyme has been documented in cooking practices dating back to ancient times. These herbs were often grown in kitchen gardens and used fresh or dried to season meats and stews. Our Poultry Rub echoes these historical uses but brings its own modern twist with the addition of ingredients like black pepper and celery, offering a contemporary flavor profile that enhances today's diverse culinary landscape.
We love this Poultry Rub for its ability to make every poultry dish sing with flavor. Whether it's a roasted turkey at Thanksgiving or a simple grilled chicken breast on a weeknight, this rub adds depth and character. The combination of traditional herbs with a touch of onion and garlic creates a taste that is both familiar and excitingly different. It's our go-to for not just holiday meals but for everyday cooking as well.
Did you know that rosemary, one of the key ingredients in our Poultry Rub, was used during the Middle Ages to ward off evil spirits and as a symbol of remembrance? Today, while we might not use it for spiritual protection, it certainly guards our dishes against blandness and is a memorable addition to any culinary creation.

Excellent authentic poultry seasoning. Love the resealable zip-lock packaging, season name and ingredients list right on the front and most of all the whole spice ordering option, fresher longer. I take a small grab full and crush in a mortar and pestle while pre-heating.
Store owner replied: Thanks for sharing! Your kebabs looks delicious.
Fresh, fragrant and delicious. I used it to flavor salmon. Ive used it on pork tenderloin. Ive added it to flour for coating chicken to be fried. Ive used it to flavor chicken, in the refrigerater overnight. It is a very versatile rub.
Store owner replied: I love using it year round, and adding it to the flour for frying chicken make it absolutely delicious. It's definitely a versatile blend good for more than "just" Thanksgiving recipes.
I’ve been using this basic rub for years. Love the flavor profile and excellent customer service.
We actually use poultry rub as the herb combo in our poultry broth. And during winter - aka soup season in the Pacific NW - we make a lot of it! Sometimes we even take the time to put the poultry rub into tea bags, making it easier to add the herbs back into our soup.
Okay, but nothing to brag about.
This is one of my favorites, very fresh!
Store owner replied: Your chicken is in for a treat! 🙌
Great! This was an interesting change from supermarket poultry mixes, I really like it a lot. sometimes I break it down slightly with my mortar and pestle and sometimes I use it whole for a milder seasoning.
Best poultry rub by far!! Chicken never had it so good with this rub and butter under the skin and on the skin of a whole chicken baked 375 f - 70 minutes. This is called perfection
Fantastic! Rub a dub.. Always tasty and handy to have on hand
Fantastic! A perfect blend.
Highly recommended! Great poultry rub!
Fantastic! This was AMAZING - mixed with olive oil and rubbed under the skin with salt. Perfect way to add classic flavor to a simple roast chicken.
Highly recommended! The kids loved this on their chicken wings! Really brings out the flavor and is great for adding a little pop to your dish
SHHH its a secret! I use this all over the place. Chicken, turkey, sauce, you name it. However I get the most praise at Thanksgiving and this is my secret ingredient. I have tried other poultry rubs but compared to this one they might as well be saw dust. This is just the next level and people go nuts over my stuffing, bird and gravy and it thanks to this seasoning.
