Lil’ Taste of Southwest
An essential ingredient for any southwest recipe is chili pepper. The blend had an even amount of herbs and garlic to give many dishes the aroma saying what’s cooking’. Think outside the box. This is superb on oven fried trout. 2oz bottles

Lemon Sesame Seed Chile Salt
These flavors dance in your mouth. The coarseness of the sea salt really lifts the flavors and the sesame seeds give a wonderful texture that holds the flavors together. This is great on lamb. Spice it up out of the box! 2oz bottles

Kickin’ Jerk Rub
This is a medium combination of spices that make the rub sweet and savory. The mixture of nutmeg and allspice bumps this rub to low-medium on the heat scale. This work very very well on grilled shrimp. Even an indoor flat grill. 2oz bottles
Herb Sea Salt
This finely ground blend of herbs (oregano, rosemary and more) is very flavorful on pork. Ground pork is a well kept secret but the right spices it can be a party in you mouth. 2oz bottles

Spicy Salt
Now this is great when you want to add a kick or a punch depending on the amount used. This blend is loaded with heat but not too much to confuse your mouth. This oregano clams this blend down. However, it’s still kickin’ with white pepper, cumin, ground red pepper. 2oz bottles

Chipotle Fish Seasoning
This is a seasoning that works well fried, in the oven or grilled seafood. The vast array of herbs, sea salt and pepper also makes it excellent for jambalaya. When you use this seasoning you can own your jambalaya 2oz bottles

Herb Seasoning
