Spice blends

[Irrelevant]

Any recommendations for craft spice blends? I tried Montana mex, which was pretty good, but I'm looking for other, both other ethnicities and other brands, something that's easy but also different than my typical favor profiles

What are you seasoning with it? Beef? Chicken? Fish?

My local Sam’s Club has some by a company called Spanglish Asadero. Pretty good.

Wisconsin company with some good blends is called Penzey’s spices. Their “Northwoods” blends are killer.

Meat church holy voodoo is a great choice. Kinders Santa Maria style is excellent as well as Susie Qs seasoning is a staple in our house!

You are way better off mixing your own-- most commercial spice blends are primarily salt-- but I'm a big fan of Savory Spice's Kansas City Strip Steak Seasoning: https://www.savoryspiceshop.com/products/kansas-city-strip-steak-seasoning

The Pike's Peak Butcher's Rub is pretty good, too (https://www.savoryspiceshop.com/collections/bbq-grilling/products/pikes-peak-butchers-rub) and the Nantucket Herb & Citrus is fantastic on smoked poultry (https://www.savoryspiceshop.com/collections/bbq-grilling/products/nantucket-herb-citrus-rub).

I’ll give an ode to Everglades seasonings. I like the cactus dust, but all purpose is good.

Everglades Seasoning: Tasting is Believing

Everglades Seasoning, based in Sebring Florida, sells quality seasonings, rubs, breader and sauces for bbq, steak, burgers, fish and chicken.

I make my own with smoked sea salt and various seasonings.
My Santa Maria is red oak smoked seas salt, red oak smoked peppercorns, dried garlic, dried onions and guajillo pepper flakes.

Both are delicious by themselves— mixed together is incredibly delicious. Smokey sweet savory and salty all at once. Great on both red and white meat! I got the kettlehouse alpine touch at our local costco

You live close to or ever travel by a Bucc’ees? They have a solid spice selection.

Also my local Ace Hardware stores have an even more impressive display.

Not sure if either are options for you.

Also, another vote for make your own. You can buy bulk (1lb) bags of spices (I like Frontier) on Amazon for a fraction of the cost of the little store bought bottles. Get some Redmond Real Salt or a good Himalayan Red Salt and you are waaaaay ahead of the curve.

My wife has a cookbook that has a good selection of “clean”’spice blends that we have used for successful starting points for several blends. I’d say we are making our blends for 1/10-1/5 the cost of the plastic bottle blends everyone on YouTube sells now.

I like all of the Alpine Touch flavors.

I also just found out I like the Traeger Blackened rub. Only had it once, but I was about ready to put it on my Cheerios the next morning it was so good.

 

[Irrelevant]

So I do make my own but I also get tired of the same flavor profiles.
Traeger makes some decent BBQ blends
Cavender is good for Greek
Montana mex decent for mex, but most others I've tried have disappointing.
Curry blends?
North African?
Caribbean?

Is there really a need for anything else?

I actually prefer Emeril Lagasse and his Essence blend. I mix my own from his recipe.
