How to Use & Tips for Tampa-Area Grilling
- 
Dry-brine prep: Pat turkey skin dry, then rub a generous layer (1 teaspoon per 2–3 lbs) under and over the skin.
 
- 
Let it rest: Allow seasonings to meld for at least 6 to 12 hours in the fridge overnight (ideal for Florida coastal humidity).
 
- 
Grill or roast low and slow: Use indirect heat—250–275 °F across 3–4 hours. For added local flair, toss a few oak chunks or citrus wood chips on the coals.
 
- 
Finish high heat (optional): In the last 20 minutes, bump heat to 375–400 °F to crisp the skin beautifully.
 
Tip for Tampa cooks: If your turkey sits out too long in our Florida temps, it may sweat—store it in a cool shaded spot until ready.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this rub overpower a citrus-brined bird?
No — the herbs and sweet notes are tuned to complement, not clash, with brines often used in turkey recipes.
Can I use this on pork or chicken too?
Absolutely. Many Tampa Bay grillers report excellent results when using Turkey Time Rub on barbecue chicken thighs, pork tenderloin, or even grilled shrimp.
How long is shelf life in humid Florida?
Store in a cool, dry cupboard and seal tightly. Properly stored, the rub should stay fresh and flavorful for 12–18 months—even in Florida’s humidity.
