THE ULTIMATE ALL-PURPOSE SEASONING
While professional grill masters rely on Susie Q’s for their Santa Maria Tri Tip seasoning, you can use this all-purpose seasoning to transform any savory food into an unforgettable dish. A pinch of seasoning will add a punch of flavor to sauces, soups, pasta and vegetables. Add a sprinkle to liven up butter, cream cheese, sour cream or cottage cheese. Use it as an authentic Santa Maria tri tip rub, but great for grilling, roasting or otherwise cooking any meat, including chicken. Use it instead of salt to create amazing Santa Maria style popcorn for your next movie-night in.
The best seasoning I've used for over 30 years! I was first introduced to Santa Maria Style Tri-Tip BBQ back in 1989. I've put a lot of smiles on people whenever I cook. I've been asked over the years to try other seasonings but nothing compares to Susie Q's!!! Still grilling here in Arizona with Susie Q's for life!!!!
I grew up in Santa Maria California and cut my teeth on tri tip. I have memories of dinner from the open pit BBG in the back yard. Of course you have to have the beans, bread and salad that accompanied the tri tip.
Santa Maria style BBQ is both world famous and locally loved. I remember sitting on the curb along broadway and eating a full meal from the big grills in the JCPenny parking lot.
Now living in Colorado I have learned that the tri tip from Costco is just not the name. Its the seasoning and the chef that make it Santa Maria style. Susie Q has come to my rescue. I have been mail ordering the seasoning for decades and it is like a bit of childhood arrived on my door step.
Thanks Susie Q for connecting my adulthood to my childhood.
50 years ago I was introduced to salsa for the first time @ the Far Western in Guadalupe. It was fresh made and was incredible. My very favorite product was and is the original Santa Maria BBQ spice. There is not a more delicious and versatile seasoning on this planet. It's kind of like bacon but more so in that as there isn't anything that doesn't taste better by adding it. The only thing I can think of that I haven't tried it on is ice-cream. Now that I've had that thought I plan to rectify this oversight ASAP. Seriously. BTW the seasoning makes an excellent gift for both the folks who've never had it and those who have. They will both be very grateful to get it. Christmas is coming!!
Moved to Arizona from Santa Maria in 2006. Still purchase Susie Q when we go back to visit. Friends in Arizona ask us to pick up the seasoning for them. We also purchase the pinquito beans.
Susie Q's original seasoning is a staple in our kitchen and on our bbq since the late 90's. We were hooked since the first time we tasted it on a tri tip. Now we use it on EVERYTHING...eggs, beans, burgers, rice, steaks, chicken, you name it, it's on it! Buy in bulk!
