A QUICK RECIPE
I don’t have too much to say about this one. It’s a delicious herb blend with pops of lemon zest and other spices that will leave your bird flavorful and exciting. It’s all the traditional flavor you want on Thanksgiving with a little extra oomph for good measure. Not only can you use it on your roasted or fried turkey, but you can also use it with your stuffing to give it that “cooked in the bird” taste without the danger of salmonella!
Ya’ll, I’m not kidding, this is a really quick one, but the flavor is so impactful when it comes to seasoning your bird. Each element adds a pop of flavor that keeps your turkey, cornish hens or chicken far from bland. Make a poultry herb butter to rub on the meat and under the skin of the bird and to baste it to maximize the flavor! Happy Thanksgiving ya’ll!

- Reserve 1/4 cup of butter mixture and cook according to recipe. Melt remaining 1/4 and baste bird during last 20 mins of cooking. Enjoy!
Notes:
For kosher salt, use a ratio of 1 tsp of kosher salt per pound of poultry.
