1. Mix the Butter, Garlic, Salt, and Butt Kickin' Italian Spice Blend together. I prefer to do this at least an hour before I want to use it.
2. Slice the bread on a diagonal, and butter one side. Place the loaf back together and wrap in aluminum foil.
Ron's Note:
You can do this either just prior to baking, or up to a day ahead of time. Just wrap it and store it in your refrigerator until your ready to cook it.
3. When it's time to cook:
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees, and bake covered for 15 minutes. Open up the foil a little and bake another 5 minutes. This will help to get a crunchy crust. If you want the whole loaf real soft, don't open it up.
