Bruce B said:I have tried various commercial rubs that say they are for poultry and some are good and I have tried developing rubs with poultry in mind. I have tried just salt and pepper, etc. and I always come back to one seasoning for chicken...Montreal Chicken Seasoning by McCormick.
It has garlic , salt, onion, black pepper, parsley, red pepper, orange peel, paparika, green bell pepper and the ever popular other spices. I always come back to it, I love the flavor it gives chicken. When you open the container and take a whiff your mind says CHICKEN.
Readily available at most grocery and/or Sam's Club type stores.

D-dog’s Poultry Rub
• 1 cup ranch dressing mix
• 2 Tbsp of black pepper
• 2 Tbsp of chili powder
• 1 Tbsp of KC Masterpiece BBQ seasoning
• 1 Tbsp of ground red pepper
Use the kind of ranch dressing mix you add milk and mayonnaise to, but DO NOT add milk and mayonnaise to it! Only use the mix powder. I usually pick up a bottle of this stuff at Sam’s Club or Costco.
Mix ingredients together and apply to any kind of poultry!!
Yes, you can. For me, the big deal with fowl is the skin--I love skin, and I love it crispy. To help the skin crisp air dry the chicken--especially if it's been brined. Rinse the chicken in cool water after you pull it from the brine, dry it well inside and out with paper towels, then put it on a rack on a sheetpan in the fridge, several hours or more is good, but even an hour or two helps.taurus252 said:thanks for that...makes great sense. I am going to try that...Ill do a search on beer can chicken. Cant you brine the chicken with salt and honey and then cook beer can style? that sounds tasty...but not sure how itll come out.
Captain Morgan said:well now that you say that, a brine with maple syrup may be very interesting!
Captain Morgan said:so what you're saying is my original thought process is right in line with the FAQ?
Should I start charging for my advice?
