There are two searches that are always very popular on our site – “chicken seasonings” and “salt free seasonings”. Now we also know from talking to our customers many of us are trying to eat healthier and trying to not consume quite so much red meat so this of course makes great sense.

I'm in the same boat, while we have a great selection of gourmet salts and many blends that have salt in them, the majority of my favorite seasoning blends tend to be those that don’t have salt as an ingredient. Naturally I’m a big fan of spicy flavor when it comes time to season my chicken but spicy doesn't always mean using hot chiles. Sometimes I’m in the mood for something a bit lighter in heat but not in flavor.

Our Flippin’ The Bird chicken rub is a palate pleasing blend that was tested and tweaked for a while before I found the magical combination of spicy flavor but without the heat. And it's a perfect salt free seasoning as well – ah the best of both worlds!

This chicken seasoning blend has an almost magical touch that only dried herbs can give to chicken and here I used marjoram and rubbed sage. Marjoram is one of the few herbs that may actually be better dried than fresh and rubbed sage is my favorite sage to work with (never been a big fan of the powder).

Now this blend can be used for baking your chicken but I tend to do the majority of my chicken rub testing on the grill and as any competitive Barbecuer will tell you – “you need to balance the spices with something sweet” so for this blend I used some granulated honey. I like granulated honey more than sugar with many of our blends as the taste is sweet but not overpowering while still giving the caramelizing effect that you want when grilling. Caramelizing helps keep the juices in.

I’ve also been a big fan of Smoked Paprika as it gives a rich flavor and aroma while the color is a brilliant deep red. For a little twang I used some dried lemon zest.

Our Flippin’ The Bird seasoning is hand blended from marjoram, rubbed sage, smoked paprika, chili de ancho mulato chili powder, lemon peel, onion powder, black pepper, granulated honey and celery seed.

If you’re a fan of chicken rubs you’re sure to find something here – 18 Spice Chicken Rub, Kickin’ Chicken, Yucatan Recado Rojo Rub and Adobo Lime Rub are some of my favorites when I’m not necessarily looking for heat.

My brother recently entered a BBQ contest in Mariposa CA. We were competing against 42 other competitors and my job was the chicken. Well I put together my favorite mustard slather and low and behold I had left my rub at home. Well I did have some Flipping the Bird rub so after a light coat of slather I sprinkled my birds with it. Well to our delight we took second in chicken and second in Tri-Tip and I feel Flipping the Bird gave us the edge....although my mustard slather may have played a small part. Thanks for your superior product and great service. Kent Olson
