Montreal Steak Seasoning Recipe

Montreal Steak Seasoning Ingredients
Grocery list for Steak Seasoning
- smoked paprika
- coarse black pepper
- salt
- granulated garlic
- coriander
- dill
- crushed red pepper
- onion powder
According to Wikipedia this seasoning originated in Canada and is used to flavor grilled meats.
Properly sealed the mix will easily last two years. Store it in a sealed container in your spice cabinet.
This is a great choice for a dry rub. After bringing the steak or meat to room temperature, coat the beef lightly with oil and rub the spice mix into the protein.
Add just prior to grilling. If the steak seasoning sits on the protein for a long length of time the salt in the mix will dry out the meat.
I love that you can personalize the seasoning! Too spicy? Omit the red pepper flakes, want to lower the sodium? Omit the salt. You can totally make this your own!
Making your own spice mix will save money and time.
No preservatives!
Homemade Montreal Steak Seasoning tastes so much better than storebought!

This came together so quickly, I was out of my normal store bought stuff. Needless to say we liked it so much I won’t be buying that again! This was fantastic!
Bowl Me Over says
fantastic! I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed this recipe!
Vanessa says
I made this recipe for seasoning and didn’t realize how spicy it was is there anything I can do to make it not so spicy?
Bowl Me Over says
Hey Vanessa – I’m sorry this is too spicy for your pallet! To make it less spicy I would add all of the ingredients except black pepper and red pepper flakes. Essentially you’re doubling the recipe but eliminating the heat. Mix it up well and you should be set.

Bowl Me Over says

Homemade seasonings are always the best. They’re fresher, have less salt and you never run out. We seasoned our steaks with this seasoning on our family get-together last weekend and everyone wanted to know what I’d used! This will my new go-to!
