1 tablespoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1 teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme 1 1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary 1 teaspoon dried sage 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Place all the ingredients in a small bowl. Stir until combined.
Rub the spice mixture all over your turkey, as well as under the skin, then cook as desired.
Spice rub can be made up to 2 months in advance.
This recipe makes the perfect amount of rub to use on a 10-12 pound turkey. If your turkey is larger, you'll want to double the recipe.
You can use fresh herbs instead of dried if you prefer; you'll just want to triple the amount of fresh herbs compared to dried.
