Emeril Lagasse Turkey Marinade - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons sweet paprika
    2 tablespoons salt
    2 tablespoons garlic powder
    1 tablespoon onion powder
    1 tablespoon black pepper
    1 tablespoon cayenne
    1 tablespoon dried thyme
    1 tablespoon dried oregano
    this is just an ingredient in the marinade
    emeril's marinade
    2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
    1 tablespoon liquid zatarain's concintrated crab boil
    1/4 cup apple cider
    3/4 cup honey
    1 tablespoon ground allspice
    1 tablespoon salt
    12 ounces beer
    1/2 cup of emeril's creole seasoning (above)
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne
    1 pinch ground cloves
Preparation
    In the above recipe it looks like just a tablespoon of Crab Boil would hardly be noticed. Don't use more unless you are sure you want to. The word concentrated is there for a reason. This marinade needs to go in a food processor or blender for 5 minutes so that it doesn't clog the injector.
    Emeril uses this as his injection marinade in a turkey that he dry brines for 24 hours in 1 cup of salt, 1 Tablespoon cayenne, and 1 Tablespoon of freshly ground black pepper.
