Durkee Charcoal Seasoning

[EAC2006]

Durkee used to make a dry rub called "Charcoal Seasoning". I havent been able to find it in years, and I get the same "cookie cutter" customer service reply from the company when I inquire. Has anyone else used this, know where to find any, or make it themselves? Thanks!

The ingredient list on Charcoal seasoning reads as very unappealing. Interesting site though.

Why would anyone want to season charcoal?

I've never used it. We make our own rubs from reading recipes and compiling a rub based on our tastes. We just made a new one a few weeks ago and a friend has been eating it on everything he cooks. This weekend will be the true test when we serve bbq to 100 people using our rubs and sauces.

It's really not hard! Basically just combine the spices and dried herbs you enjoy to make a product all your own.

Yikes! Why on earth would anybody put that on their food ... I wonder if the original Durkee's had the same or similar ingredients.

Sheesh! rubs and grill seasonings are so easy to make, and there are, at last count, 645,895,783,243 recipes available for such a thing according to www.dryrubandseasoning.com

I've used this before and can not find it anymore either. I like the flavor that a charcoal grill gives to the food and since I have a Gas grill this is the next best thing. I would sprinkle some on the hamburgers for the flavor of a charcoal grill ( not used to season charcoal)
