The BEST Steak Seasoning Recipe

Summertime is when we bust out the grill and cook up alllll the meat. And let’s be honest, is there any better meat than a nicely seasoned steak? Not in my family! Steak is where it’s at but it MUST have the right seasoning on it or it’s a waste! This homemade steak seasoning is absolutely delicious and so easy to make. It adds so much flavor to your meat and really makes it stand out.

All you need for this steak seasoning blend is a few dried herbs, some garlic and onion and you will be set! And trust me, once you try making a homemade seasoning then you are never going to buy them at the store again! They are so much better plus you can customize them to your liking. Whether you like to add heat, more garlic or onion is your thing… You can easily change it up to make it exactly how you like it! Another classic that we like to use is this chicken seasoning for those who don’t care for red meat.
