Notes
1. Adjusting for brined turkey: This rub is meant to be salt-free when the turkey has been heavily brined. A wet or dry brine already seasons the meat, so adding more salt can push it too far. If your turkey is pre-brined, self-basting, or kosher, cut the salt in the rub by half. If you brined it yourself, leave the salt out entirely.
