- 1 tablespoon sea salt

- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika

- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Instructions
- First, gather all your ingredients on a clean counter or workspace. You’ll need your sea salt, brown sugar, smoked paprika, ground ancho chile pepper, dried thyme, ground black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, and ground cumin.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the sea salt and brown sugar. Use a whisk or a fork to mix them together thoroughly. This step is critical as it ensures the sugar evenly distributes throughout the mix.
- Next, add the smoked paprika and ground ancho chile pepper to the bowl. These two ingredients will give your seasoning that beautiful color and depth of flavor. Stir well to combine.
- Now, add the dried thyme and ground black pepper. These spices bring their unique flavors, and the thyme will add an aromatic quality to your blend.
- Incorporate the garlic powder and onion powder next. Mixing these in will add a savory, umami flavor that is essential for a well-rounded seasoning.
- Finally, sprinkle in the ground mustard and ground cumin. Each of these spices contributes unique flavors that elevate the overall seasoning blend.
- Once all the ingredients are in the bowl, use a whisk to thoroughly combine them. You want to ensure that each ingredient is well-integrated, as this will lead to consistent flavor when you apply it to your steak.
- After mixing, you can use the seasoning immediately. However, if you prefer, you can store it in a small airtight container. This blend lasts for several weeks, so you can always have it on hand for your next steak dinner.
- When ready to use, generously rub the seasoning over all sides of your steak. Be sure to cover the meat well so every bite is packed with flavor. Allow the steak to rest for at least 20 minutes before grilling or searing.
- Enjoy the amazing results! The Best Steak Seasoning Recipe will give you tender, flavorful steaks that are sure to impress everyone at your table.
