You know how you have that go-to spice that you can always use, always rely on, and always tastes great? This is my favorite spice blend to use on poultry. Be it beer can chicken on the grill, a big turkey or chicken parts in the oven, this is super easy, and always tasty. The amount given is enough for one chicken; if you are using it on a turkey, then double the recipe.
