Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Paprika

- 2 teaspoons Dried thyme
- 1.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground mustard
Directions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients: paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, salt, brown sugar, and ground mustard.
Step 2
Mix the ingredients thoroughly using a whisk or a fork until the spices are evenly distributed and the rub has a consistent texture.
Step 3
Use immediately to season a whole chicken for rotisserie cooking or store in an airtight container for future use. The rub can be stored in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
Step 4
To apply the rub, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Generously sprinkle the rub on all sides of the chicken, including the inner cavity. Rub the spices gently into the skin for maximum flavor penetration.
Step 5
Allow the chicken to rest for 30 minutes before cooking if possible, to let the flavors meld into the meat.
