Steak Seasoning Recipe Tips:
- Double the Batch – We recommend doubling the batch when you are making it. This seasoning can be used on many different things. We like to always have a jar ready to add to our recipes.
- Storing – Make sure to store in a airtight container and place in your pantry. If stored properly this seasoning will last up to a year.
How to Season Steak:
Sprinkle the steak seasoning on the steak. I like to bring the steak to room temperature before cooking. Rub into the meat before pan frying or placing on the grill. You will love how it tastes.
If you do not want to use a dry rub for seasoning your steak, add a tablespoon of olive oil to the seasoning. Add the oil will make a paste to rub into the steak. Either way is good. Just do what you prefer. I prefer to add oil when I am making a grilled steak.
How to Store the Seasoning:
The seasoning blend needs to be stored inside an airtight container. We normally use a mason jar or reuse an old spice container.
Typically, I use a mason jar though because I always have several in the cabinet. They are easy to reuse and so handy.
Just use what you prefer.
How to Use Steak Seasoning:
- Steaks – This seasoning blend is the best way to season steaks. Use the dry rub to rub on the steaks prior to grilling them, cooking on the skillet or roasting the steak.
- Chicken – You can even season your chicken with this delicious seasoning. Generously seasoning the chicken prior to cooking.
- Pork – Add the steak seasoning to your pork tenderloin, pork chops, or roast for amazing flavoring.
- Turkey – Enhance your holiday turkey with this delicious seasoning. Before you place your holiday turkey in the oven, make sure to rub this steak seasoning all over.
- Vegetables – This seasoning can also be used on vegetables. Sprinkle the seasoning on your foil pack vegetables or grilled vegetables.
- Burgers – Skip the season salt and sprinkle the seasoning over the top of your burger patties before grilling.
- Macaroni and Cheese – When making homemade macaroni and cheese, this seasoning would be delicious sprinkled on top. Mix it with your bread crumbs and generously sprinkle on top.
Scoop our a portion of the seasoning from the jar and generously cover your steaks with the seasoning. Really anything you put it on will add so much flavor. You can use less or more depending on your preference.
