Thanksgiving is just around the corner and many Americans will be roasting a turkey to celebrate the holiday. We like to roast the turkey in the oven while others may prefer tossing it into the smoker or in a deep-fry. Here’s one of our favorite turkey rub recipes.

Sage Rubbed Turkey Breast Recipe
3-4 large turkey breasts or 1 small-mediume whole turkey
1 Tbsp. Olive Oil
2 Tbsp. McCormick Rubbed Sage
1 Tbsp. Seasoned Salt
1 tsp. Ground Black Pepper
1 tsp. Ground Paprika
1 tsp. Oregano Flakes
1 tsp. Garlic Powder
1 Tbsp. Brown Sugar
Place all of the dry spices, including the brown sugar into a small bowl. Use a spoon to combine them together.
Brush Olive Oil over the outside of the turkey. Using your hands rub the spices and brown sugar mixture all over the outside of the turkey. Rub it in good. If you have some of the mixture left and are roasting a whole bird…toss some inside the bird’s cavity too!
Bake, Smoke or Roast until the inside of the bird is done. You want to make sure the juices run clear and that the skin is nice and toasty. If you have a meat thermometer, use it!!! Remove from the oven and let sit for 5-10 minutes before carving and serving.
