Notice that all 5 recipes call for rosemary. The nice part of that? When you make your own, you can leave it out. Try to do that with store bought. lolWe personally love it and add it to all sorts of recipes...especially on pork roasts and poultry - smothered in olive oil, salt, pepper, and HdP...so good!
Finding *good* HdP can be a little tricky though as it is a blend of herbs so you never always know what you are going to get. We have started to make our own. I find a lot of the commercially sold often are blended with lavender (or too much lavender) for our liking....
It's easy to make your own if you have an assortment of herbs...
Here are some of the blends we have been trying (or going to try)...

To some folks, like my wife and I, rosemary tastes like pine needles.No rosemary?
Well, the world would be a very dull place if we all liked the same things. I am not fond of plank cooked salmon as much as many people but, I do like bacon wrapped meatloaf on a plank.To some folks, like my wife and I, rosemary tastes like pine needles.
I also will never cook on a cedar plank.
