⭐ Ang’s Tips

✔️ Gently pat your steak dry with a paper towel before you season steak.

✔️ For best flavor, allow the meat to marinate with the dry rub (refrigerate for chicken or room temperature for steak) for 30 minutes prior to cooking.

✔️ You can also use this in combination with olive oil and Worcestershire sauce for even more amazing flavor. Add about 1 teaspoon each to both sides of your steaks.

📖 Variations

The first time you try any new recipe we recommend that you make it just as it is written on the recipe card since that is how the steak seasoning recipe has been tested. However, the next time you make our recipe, you might want to try one of these ideas:

If you like a little bit more kick, add crushed red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper.

Instead of oregano in this homemade seasoning, try basil, chives, or parsley which all go well with beef.
