Dry Rub for Chicken or Turkey

By michele080478

This makes about 3/4 cup of the most wonderful spice blend, I have used it many times in the past --- the amounts listed is enough to coat one large roasting chicken, 1 small turkey or 2-3 small whole fryer chickens, or 12-14 pieces of chicken, if you like lots of heat then increase the cayenne, you will love this! :)

• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 2 tablespoons paprika
• 1 tablespoon cumin (only used 1 tsp)
