Grill Mates Dill Pickle Seasoning Shakers, 2.75 oz Pack of 6 — Tangy Dill & Garlic Blend for Burgers, Snacks

McCormick Grill Mates Dill Pickle Seasoning is a savory, herby blend that adds tangy dill-pickle flavor to burgers, vegetables, snacks, and dips.

This 2.75 oz shaker (sold here as a convenient pack of six) mixes dill seed with onion, garlic and black pepper to recreate the bright, briny profile of dill pickles without adding moisture. Designed for everyday grilling and quick kitchen tweaks, it works as a direct seasoning for ground meats, a finishing sprinkle for fries and popcorn, or a base for simple marinades and dips.

How should I use this seasoning on burgers and grilled meats?

Shake a measured amount directly into ground meat or mix it into a wet marinade. The seasoning brings dill-forward tang plus savory onion and garlic notes, enhancing grilled burgers, chicken breasts and pork without extra liquid.

• Shake 1 tablespoon per 1 lb. ground beef, chicken, or pork before forming patties
• Stir into oil and vinegar for an easy marinade for steaks or chicken
• Sprinkle on finished burgers for a bright, pickle-like finish

What non-meat uses make the most of the dill-pickle flavor?

This seasoning is versatile beyond the grill—try it in cold salads, snack seasonings and creamy dips to add tang and herb depth. It pairs especially well with mayonnaise- or yogurt-based recipes and crisp vegetables.

• Mix into egg, potato or chicken salads to replace chopped pickles
• Blend with sour cream or Greek yogurt for a fast dill-pickle dip
• Sprinkle over popcorn, fries or roasted vegetables for a zesty finish

How much should I use and how does it affect overall saltiness?

Follow the general guideline of 1 tablespoon per pound of protein for a balanced pickled-dill taste; adjust to preference. Because the blend includes spices and salt-like seasonings, taste as you go—reduce added salt in recipes when using this shaker to avoid over-salting.

• Start with 1 tbsp per 1 lb. protein; increase for stronger pickle punch
• Omit or reduce recipe salt when this seasoning is added
• Use light dusting on snacks, or heavier coating for marinades

Will this seasoning store well and work for meal prep?

The dry, shelf-stable formulation keeps well in a pantry—ideal for batch cooking and prepping flavored proteins ahead of time. Packaged in a resealable shaker, it’s convenient to portion into meal-prep containers or to use across multiple recipes without clumping.

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and humidity
• Works for seasoning batches of burgers, chicken, or roasted vegetables
• Pack of six shakers provides extra supply for frequent cooks

Who is this for: Home cooks and grill enthusiasts who want to add a tangy, dill-forward twist to classic dishes without preparing pickles or brine. This Grill Mates seasoning suits busy families, snackers looking for new flavors, and anyone who enjoys experimenting with dips, salads, and grilled proteins. The pack-of-six format is particularly useful for meal-prep, gifting, or keeping a shaker in multiple kitchen zones.
