Experimental MeauxJeaux Seasoning

Tenpoint5 · February 10, 2011, 12:51:03 PM

I had some time to kill today. So I went surfing the net for some sausage seasonings found me a nice little site that has some sausage seasonings to be discussed later. While I was cruising around it seemed everyone had them a New MOJO Seasoning. Since I have been trying to clone one recipe I said to myself. "Self lets make us a MOJO seasoning" So I did but I added a kick to it.

MeauxJeaux

2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
2 teaspoon White Sugar
3 teaspoon Orange Peel (Ground down to a powder in a mortar and pestle)
1/2 teaspoon Cayenne
1 teaspoon Onion Powder
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Cumin
1/4 teaspoon White Pepper

The wet finger test is pretty good. It has a sweet beginning with a touch of orange, then a little light bite of heat, then a big orange flavor and finishes off with a lingering soft heat. I will put it to the test tonight and put some on a corner of my ribeye steak. I will let you know how it turns out.

Oh this looks way cool!

Going to have to put this on my list of things to try.

Thanks, Chris!

Were you abducted as a child or have a previous job at area 51? Always trying to clone something...

Using anything else cloned on another corner of that ribeye? ;)

Well when I was very young I was helping clean out a grain bin and some smart Allelic told me to go sit in the corner. I am still looking for that corner inside the grain bin.

Nope just two flavors on the ribeye tonight.

Now I am not a MOJO aficionado by any means. Since I have never tried it before. I will say that this added a new dimension to my ribeye steak arsenal of tricks. The light heat noted above was NO WHERE to be found. Now the sweetness came through along with the orange as a subtle flavor that really added a nice touch to the steak. I will be using this one again.
