- 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves

Notes
- Prep: highly recommend patting the turkey dry and then add a drizzle of olive oil or softened butter before seasoning with this dry rub.
- Amount: one batch of this dry rub seasoning will season a regular-sized whole turkey. Option to make more or less depending on the size of your turkey.
- Flavor Punch: add even more flavor by pairing this dry rub with our Turkey Marinade or Turkey Injection - such a good combo!
- Pellet/Wood Chips: using either basic hickory wood chips or apple wood chips, for a subtle sweetness, work great for smoked turkey recipes.
- Storage: Store it in an airtight container in the pantry for up to 3 months. It will last longer than 3 months but some of the flavors might become a bit muted.
- Gravy: Don't forget to collect the drippings and follow our tutorial on how to make smoked turkey gravy!
