We got tired of seasoning packets so I started researching and experimenting to come up with my own. Here's what I came up with. You may need to adjust the salt and/or crushed red pepper to suit you. We prefer lower salt and my wife likes it less spicy.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon dried ancho chile powder

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

1. Mix all ingredients together and store in an air tight container until ready to use.
2. Cooking:.
3. Add the following to your already cooked meat.
4. 2/3 cup water.
5. 3 tablespoons per pound of the seasoning mixture.
6. simmer to reduce.
7. adjust salt and crushed red pepper to taste.
