How to use Sassy Steak Spice

Let's make a ribeye. Start with a steak that’s 1 to 1.5 inches thick. Generously coat both sides with our Sassy Steak Spice, pressing the seasoning into the meat. Let the steak sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to penetrate. Grill or pan-sear to your desired doneness, and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Spice 101

Our Sassy Steak Spice is a bold blend designed to bring a Latin American flair to your grilling game. This spice mix includes garlic, smoked sea salt, Urfa Biber, chipotle, Italian sea salt, cumin, long pepper, Vietnamese cinnamon, and Mexican oregano. It's a salt-forward blend with a hint of smokiness and a touch of sweetness, making it a versatile addition to any meat dish.

The origins of steak spices can be traced back to the days when preserving meat was a necessity, and spices were used to mask the less-than-fresh flavors of preserved meats. However, our Sassy Steak Spice is a modern twist on this age-old practice, drawing inspiration from the robust cattle trade that was central to much of South America's economies and cultures for centuries.

We love Sassy Steak Spice for its ability to transform a simple steak into a culinary adventure. The combination of smoky chipotle and aromatic Vietnamese cinnamon creates a flavor profile that's both familiar and intriguingly different. It's our go-to for steak night, but we've also found it works wonders on salmon and even in a hearty meatloaf. The blend's versatility and boldness make it a staple in our spice cabinet.

The use of chipotle, a smoked chili pepper, is a nod to the indigenous cultures of Mexico, where smoking was a common method of food preservation and flavor enhancement.
