If you’ve ever wanted to make your own rotisserie chicken, this spice mix for a great rub really helps give your chicken that store bought flavor!

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… 🙂 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.
