Rotisserie Chicken Rub Spice Mix

My parents gifted me with a counter top chicken rotisserie machine (like this one) many years ago and this homemade spice mix is the missing ticket to deliciously homemade rotisserie chicken. If you don’t have a rotisserie machine, you can also make rotisserie chicken in a slow cooker (this Hamilton Beach is the one I have!)! And, I love to use this versatile spice mix in chicken noodle soup too. Here’s my recipe for Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup.

Update: I have started making a delicious rotisserie chicken in my Instant Pot! It’s pretty easy and very, very delicious.

Put them in an empty spice jar and shake it over your whole chicken. Make a lot so you don’t have to mix it the next time you make a chicken! Don’t forget to label your jar so you know what’s in it… ๐Ÿ™‚ By the way, if you like to make your own spice mixes, I highly recommend these Ball Canning Jar Spice Lids! I got some a couple years ago and love them.

  1. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this recipe! My husband doesn’t want chicken any other way. I even used it on pork chops and cooked them in my air fryer oven . It turned out great. Now I doubt have to buy chicken at the store, I can just make it at home.

  4. Is the spice mix really hot once it’s mixed together? Also, what does it taste like once it’s cooked on the chicken?
