This seasoning is the BOMB! I originally created it as part of our one of Kids Health Quest Cook-Alongs with the specific intention of helping them to Design Their Own Lunchbox Cracker. They had about 4 different seasoning mixes to choose from. Anyways, this BBQ seasoning was by far the most popular with the kids.

As a family we use this seasoning in so many ways. For crackers, on pizzas, sprinkled over chicken or cauliflower when roasting, in bread crumbs when making chicken nuggets etc. That’s why I now call it All Purpose BBQ Seasoning.

See how our tween son Rilien uses this seasoning to make his Cheats BBQ Crackers here.

Ingredients

  • 1 tsp Lemon Zest (about ½ normal sized lemon)
  • 2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 2 tsp Good Quality Salt (We use Changing Habits Seaweed Salt)
  • 2 tsp Mixed Italian Herbs
  • Good Grind of Pepper

Method

  1. Using your zester, zest half a lemon.
  2. Add all ingredients to a small bowl and then combine well using a fork.
  3. You may need to break down any clumps that form with the back of the fork.
  4. Place the seasoning in an air tight sealed jar and store in the pantry for about 2-3 weeks.
