Looking for a different seasoning for your turkey this year? Then you may want to try this Caribbean inspired turkey seasoning.

Many Americans don't know that throughout the Caribbean that Thanksgiving is celebrated and is also used as the starting point of their Christmas season.  Just as we do here in the US the people of this region place great emphasis on the Thanksgiving meal, which fuses American culinary traditions with the tropical cuisine of Puerto Rico.

Caribbean turkey is usually marinated in the same fashion as the traditional roast pork, which is sometimes served as a substitute (like we might substitute ham). The Puerto Rican turkey marinade typically includes orange juice, vinegar, garlic and other spices.

Our Caribbean Turkey rub is hand blended with ginger root, brown sugar, orange zest, black pepper, sea salt, ground nutmeg and ground cloves. We especially like to use this seasoning as the flavoring in our brine. We recommend ½ cup per gallon of liquid --- a combination of water (6 quarts) and orange juice (3 quarts).

If you are looking for other turkey seasonings then be sure to check out our Cajun Turkey Rub and if you are going to smoke your bird then don’t miss our Texas Smoked Turkey Rub. And don't forget the stuffing our Poultry Seasoning is perfect whether you cook your stuffing inside or outside of the bird! Also, if you’re a fan of Latin American style chicken marinade seasonings then check out our Bahamian Chicken.
