Anyone up for sending some gunpowder to me in Canada?

I'll PayPal to cover everything.

Drop me a PM.

Thanks

i found this on line does it seem like what you got
GUN POWDER SEASONING
By Steve Elke

3 tablespoons Chili Powder
2 ½ tablespoons Paprika
2 tablespoons Salt
2 tablespoons Garlic Powder
1 tablespoon Ground Black Pepper
1 tablespoon Onion Powder
1 tablespoon Ground Cayenne Pepper
1 tablespoon Ground Chipotle Chili Pepper
1 tablespoon Ground Oregano
1 tablespoon Ground Thyme

i am trying to find a clone of it

OK I am working on a clone of this and have been in contact with BLSH to compare notes. As Eric is also working on a clone from a more scientific approach. Unlike my wet finger, stick in powder, stick on tongue approach. My clone comes just about as close in flavor as I think The average guy is going to be able to produce. My clone is more red than black but the flavor is pretty close. 10.5 1/4 said its good but it doesn't have the "Bang" that the original does. So there's hope for me I will be trying it on some hamburgers tonight to do a side by side cooking comparison.

I started with the basic recipe above and made adjustments from there in red.

1/2 tablespoon Ground Cayenne Pepper
1 tablespoon Ground Chipotle Chili Pepper
1 tablespoon Ground Oregano
1 tablespoon Ground Thyme
2 tablespoon Wyler's Chicken bouillon granules (Grind to a powder with Spice Grinder or Mortar and Pestle)
2 tablespoon Celery Salt
3 tablespoon Accent Flavor Enhancer

Like I said this is pretty close with the wet finger test. I will report back after supper.

Oh I'll be trying them all.. Just thought I would get some of the original first then compare from there.

That should work for you as a substitute Lumpy until we can find a way get some sent up to you

LumpyDVC · February 10, 2011, 08:37:51 AM

I'm going to make those up this weekend and give them a whirl.

Thanks CG!

I will call Sid's today and see what I can get as far as a big pkg.

Maybe a large amount to get distributed.

I'll work on this Today.

CRG posted while I was sending Kris a PM offer to mail him some! ;D

LumpyDVC · February 10, 2011, 09:02:18 AM

Either way, I can re-forward some onto others in Canada.

They have a 10 pound "jug" Sonny.

4 pounds is the magic number when shipping USPS to Canada. You go over that, and the price goes up dramatically..

Was thinking of using the under ground to get it across. ;D
