Buttery Garlic Steak Seasoning

Pellicano's Buttery Garlic Steak Seasoning

Steakhouse Flavor, Straight from the Shaker

Pellicano's Buttery Garlic Steak Seasoning is an all-in-one rub designed to deliver the signature, rich flavor of butter-basted steak without the mess of basting in the pan. The blend leverages the power of high-quality Butter Powder to ensure the savory aromatics and classic seasonings adhere tightly to the meat, creating an irresistible, fragrant crust as the steak cooks.

The profile is intensely savory, creamy, and pungent:

• Richness and Adhesion: The Butter Powder provides a depth of creamy, luxurious flavor and, crucially, helps bind the spice particles to the meat surface.

• Pungent Core: A generous measure of Garlic and Onion delivers the sharp, savory bite that complements and cuts through the richness of the beef fat.

• Classic Finish: Salt and Pepper are perfectly balanced to form the necessary seasoned crust, known as the "bark," that locks in the meat’s juices.

Essential for Grilling, Searing, and Savory Snacks

This seasoning is designed for high-heat cooking and deep flavor infusion:

• Steak and Roasts: Rub generously onto any steak cut (ribeye, New York strip, filet) 30–60 minutes before grilling, pan-searing, or reverse-searing.

• Poultry and Pork: Excellent when rubbed under the skin of chicken or applied to pork chops or tenderloin before baking or grilling.

• Garlic Bread: Mixed with softened butter and spread thickly on bread for an instant, rich garlic butter bread.

• Popcorn and Fries: Dust generously over hot popcorn or French fries for a savory, buttery, and garlicky snack upgrade.

Fun Fact: The Role of Fat in Flavor

The reason the Buttery Garlic profile is so popular is rooted in the science of flavor. Garlic and many spice compounds are fat-soluble, meaning their flavor and aroma are absorbed and amplified by fats. When this butter-rich seasoning hits the high heat of a grill or skillet, the butter powder melts and releases the concentrated garlic, onion, and natural flavor compounds, coating the meat in a thin layer of highly aromatic, savory oil. This process delivers maximum flavor directly to the taste receptors.

This method ensures a perfect crust, even cooking, and intense flavor payoff.

Ingredients:

• 2 Thick-Cut Steaks (1.5 inches thick)

Instructions:

1. Prep: Pat steaks dry and rub lightly with Olive Oil. Coat both sides and edges generously with the Buttery Garlic Steak Seasoning. Let sit at room temperature for 30–60 minutes.

2. Slow Cook: Preheat oven to 250°F. Place steaks on a wire rack over a baking sheet. Bake until the internal temperature reaches 115°F (about 40–60 minutes).
