Spiceology Cowboy Butter Seasoning — Derek Wolf 10.4 oz jar, smoky-paprika butter blend for grilling & finishing

This 10.4 oz jar packs smoky paprika, bright mustard seed, garlic, and butter granules into a single versatile seasoning made with input from open-fire expert Derek Wolf. It’s built to add a rich, slightly tangy, and lightly spicy finish to steaks, chicken, pork, seafood and vegetables. Use it dry on the grill, blended into melted butter as a finishing sauce, or stirred into dips and snacks for an instant flavor upgrade.

How does this seasoning change grilled and roasted meats?

Cowboy Butter delivers a buttery crust and savory complexity that complements charred meats without overpowering them. The smoked paprika and garlic promote caramelization while mustard seed and vinegar powder add a tangy lift that brightens rich proteins.

• Sprinkle before searing to form a savory bark on steaks and chops
• Use as a rub for brisket and pork shoulder to enhance smoke flavor
• Mix into melted butter and brush on poultry during the last minutes of roasting

What are the best non-meat uses for Cowboy Butter?

Beyond meats, this blend turns ordinary sides and snacks into standout dishes. It works well tossed with roasted vegetables, folded into compound butter, or dusted over popcorn for a smoky-savory snack.

• Toss roasted potatoes, carrots or Brussels sprouts with the seasoning and olive oil
• Blend with sour cream or Greek yogurt for an instant dip or baked potato topper
• Sprinkle over popcorn or fries for bold smoky, buttery flavor

How concentrated is the flavor and how much should I use?

The 10.4 oz jar is generously seasoned and designed to deliver noticeable flavor with modest use. Start light, then adjust—this blend has salt, butter granules and umami notes that intensify with heat and time.

• For steaks and chops, apply 1/2 to 1 teaspoon per side before cooking
• Mix 1–2 tablespoons into 1/2 cup melted butter for a finishing sauce
• For vegetables, use 1–2 teaspoons per pound depending on taste
