The best answer I can give is  Jan's Rub (http://www.susanminor.org/forums/showthread.php?467-Jan-s-Dry-Rub)

Jan's Dry Rub was originally formulated specifically for poultry.  Turns out it's good on just about everything.

I agree, Jans rub, But I think next time I make it I will make Jans spicy rub.

When you guys have used Jan's rub did you brine the birds?


Thanks

The last chickens I did I just used garlic pepper, salt, onion powder and thyme inside and out. It was very good!

Lumpy,
I've done them both ways and except for the brined bird being "maybe" a little more moist, I couldn't tell a big difference.  The Jan's Rub somehow helps to retain the juiciness in my opinion.
