There’s a reason this authentic Santa Maria Style Seasoning is our #1 selling product. It’s the essential ingredient for anyone whose passion is regional cooking, as well as a pantry staple that enhances the flavors of almost any food.
Our “blue label” original Susie Q’s Santa Maria Seasoning is a well balanced blend that rounds out on the palate without being salty or strong flavored. We use the highest quality ingredients to craft our seasonings, including California grown garlic, cracked black pepper, the purest earth salts and fresh parsley.
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.
I've been using Santa Maria Style Seasoning (blue label) since I lived in Lompoc. We moved to Oregon in 2002 and I was not able to find your seasoning up here. I have been ordering your seasoning since 2002 online. I have many friends and relatives that always ask to borrow some, so I order the 6.5 lb. storage refill jar. I use this seasoning on everything I cook. It just makes everything better.
This seasoning has been a game-changer for decades—I’ve been using it for about 30 years, and it’s still my go-to for everything. Whether I’m mixing it into cream cheese for a crowd-pleasing dip, sprinkling it over roasted vegetables, seasoning meats and fish to perfection, or even adding extra flavor to my Bloody Marys, it never disappoints. It’s so essential that I always order ahead to ensure I never run out. Truly a must-have for any kitchen!
In the early 90s I worked construction at the Santa Maria Airport. My first taste of Tritip was at the motel where I stayed. Every Thursday the staff would grill Tritip for the construction crews in a show of appreciation. I was hooked. Afterwards I went online and found Susie Qs. I purchase the 6.5 # seasoning every year and use it on everything you have described. Alas you are out of stock at this posting. I recommend your original seasoning to anyone who will listen and give out samples from my stash for them to try .
I lived on the Central Coast most of my life. Moved to northern Cali about 12 years ago. We still order SusieQ many times a year and have turned new friends into new customers. Once people use SusieQ they never look back!!
Years ago my cousin in California sent a bottle of Susie Q seasoning to me here in Texas as a gift. I have since been seasoning just about everything with it. When we go out to California I stock up on it or when my sister comes to Texas to visit I have her bring some. It’s such a universal spice that goes well on meats, soups, etc.
