Allrecipes Community Tip and Praise

“This is just like what I’ve previously purchased pre-made,” according to CKay. “I wish I had found this recipe sooner. I ground/mixed this in a coffee grinder since some of my ingredients were not ground yet (rosemary, thyme, marjoram, sage) and it came out perfect.”

“Worked out great,” says Aaron Hafele. “Used this on the Thanksgiving Day turkey and it was wonderful. So much better than adding yet another jar to the spice cabinet.”

“Have made this a few times and now it's my go-to poultry seasoning,” raves Shelly. “I never have marjoram on hand, so I replace it with oregano.”
