Chili Lime – Potent citrus notes with sweet and smoky ancho chili powder. Use with your choice of meat or veggies. (My friend Amanda uses this one by sprinkling over pineapple cooked in butter and served over black beans…whoa!)

Hot Chicken – You know hot chicken is Nashville’s dish, so I’m dying to make it with this blend. Made with garlic, cayenne pepper, and onion.

I recently picked up the Hot Chicken seasoning to be part of a Nashville gift basket and was so sad I couldn’t keep it for myself! Personally, though, I’d absolutely try the Wrangler first. Like you said. CRAB CAKES.

Being winter in NY I would still love to try the porterhouse steak blend…have to dig out the grill but I think it would be worth it….happy holidays
My husband would like every one of these. I’d try for myself the tuscan dipping oil!
HOT CHICKEN! I’m all the way down in Nolensville so hot chicken is hard to come by. I’d be all over that!

I would use the Porterhouse steak blend and grill up a mean steak for the hubs.
I would love to try the Chili Lime with something on the grill!
Streamside Angler I think would be great in crab cakes!
I’d love to try the chili lime on everything! chicken, beef, veggies!
Would love to try the hot chicken! I love hot chicken and have been really wanted to try my own spin on it.

All of them look wonderful, but I think the Hot Chicken would be first for me!!!! Yum!
Hot chicken! I bought that and the angler ones for my boss for Christmas, but the store only had one hot chicken left so I couldn’t get one for myself.
These sound awesome! The Bourbon BBQ would be great in our porchetta!
@knoxfoodie
i mean the HOT CHICKEN of course!
The Tuscan Dipping Oil sounds delish!
I would try Streamside Angler first, love seafood
Those all sound so yummy! I would try the porterhouse seasoning first! :)I love a good steak!
the tuscan dipping oil sounds divine!!
The chili lime. I can think of all kinds of ways to use it, and that pineapple black bean dish you mentioned sounds amazing!
I would love to try the bourbon bbq on some pulled pork!
I tweeted! https://twitter.com/steph4575/status/545606145801322496
I’d definitely try the Tuscan Blend first. I am not familiar with this company, so thanks for the intro. Merry Christmas to you!
Uh, hello……the one with bourbon!! That Bourbon BBQ sounds incredible. Well, they all sound incredible. Coach would totes dig that Chili Lime too!
I’ve love to try the Tuscan Dipping oil!
Tuscan dipping oil!
Hot chicken!

Chili lime. I’d love to try the pineapple black bean dish you described but could use it for so many things! Fish, shrimp or chicken tacos come to mind. On of my favorite ways to use chili lime seasoning is to sprinkle it on slices of zucchini or summer squash and then grill it. Divine!
All the varieties look delicious, but the first one I’d try is the Porterhouse Steak.

So hard to choose, they all look yummy! But I’d most like to try Tuscan
Chile Lime is right up my alley!
Definitely the Hot Chicken
