  1. Karla says:

    Love the flavor. Don’t use salt in anything I make so I substituted the salt and used Mrs Dash Tastes just a good bit without the salt

    1. Heidi says:

      That’s great to know, Karla… thanks for sharing!

  2. Christie says:

    I must try this idea! It sounds so good and it saves me a trip from the grocery store!

    1. Heidi says:

      Right? Once you know how to make it, you’ll never go back to store bought blends again! 🙂

  3. Cindy says:

    Can wet minced garlic be used?

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Cindy… you can definitely use wet minced garlic when cooking your steak, but for this dry seasoning mix you’ll want to use dry minced garlic. Hope that helps!
