This is a combination of several kopycat recipes I found for Montreal Steak Spice . I messed with them till I came up with this. Hubby has a Cottonseed Oil alergy which seems to be in many store bought spice mixes which was the driving force for this.

Ingredients:

6 tablespoons coriander

1 tablespoon green peppercorn

1 tablespoon red peppercorn

2 tablespoons white peppercorns

2 tablespoons black peppercorns

2 tablespoons cumin seeds

1 1/2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds

2 tablespoons fenugreek seeds (i use when i can) (optional)

2 -4 dried new mexico chiles, with seeds (mild)

2 -4 thai dried hot red chili peppers, with seeds

2 tablespoons dried thyme

2 tablespoons rosemary (rough ground)

2 tablespoons hot paprika

6 tablespoons minced dried garlic (not garlic salt) or 6 tablespoons garlic powder, works in a pinch

2 tablespoons minced dried onion

dried onion flakes, slightly ground

3 tablespoons coarse sea salt, to taste do not grind (optional)

Directions:

1. ** Note: Substitute 6 Tbls Black peppercorn, depending on what is you have handy or preference.
2. # Note: chilie peppers optional to taste, if you like it hot add more and with seeds
3. Lightly toast each whole spice separately in a dry cast pan until it releases the aroma or starts to brown
4. Then grind each spice separately to a fairly course texture due to the different hardness’s of the spices. Some are harder than others and require more time in the grinder. As always, a cheap coffee grinder works great!
5. Combine the newly ground spices and the Just Add spices in bowl till cool then put in a jar for storage.
6. Rub on steak half an hour before cooking. The longer it marinades the better. I have added sage and used this on chicken and pork as well.
7. This makes a large mason jar full (1 quart) I make enough to share lol.
