Yep...It will say something similar to, " An X% solution of salt, broth and oil, has been added. " This will vary. Self Basting usually has the oil added while Enhaced is just the salt and broth...JJ

Huh...I call self basting meat on a rotisserie.   I should have remembered butter ball self basting.
