Turkey Wet Rub

Crystal

I decided to try this recipe out last night on a roast chicken, better to practice on something less time consuming than a turkey!  I halved the recipe and I still had some mixture left over after covering the bird.  The skin started to brown very early on so I covered with foil for a while.  The chicken tasted great, I wasn’t quite sure what was expecting, but nothing was strange at all.  I am not a huge mayonnaise fan to begin with so that was a relief!  The skin however was not crispy, like the fat did not render enough.  I think that this happened because I covered it, it looked like it was browned but really the skin didn’t have enough time to really cook.  <div> I don’t think I will be entirely converting to this way of roasting chicken or turkey, but I would definitely try again and leave off the foil.   </div>
