FAQs

Yes! Of course. This homemade bbq seasoning blend is great on chicken, French fries, sub sandwiches and more. Just make some up ahead of time and sprinkle it on everything.

Just sprinkle it on while they’re fresh and hot from the oil. The excess oil will help it stick and the cooling process will allow the food to absorb the seasoning.

I would imagine you can use a 1:1 ratio sugar substitute if you want. Stevia would be good, I think. But definitely don’t remove the sugar. That’s the base for the flavor and it won’t be right.
