How to Use Steak Seasoning
This steak seasoning is extremely versatile. You can use it in a number of ways to enhance the flavor of your dishes:
Marinade: Dive into the world of flavor by marinating your meat with this marinade. Place the meat in a resealable plastic bag, pour the marinade over it, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
This will allow the meat to absorb all the flavors.

For those looking to vary a bit, here are some additional suggestions:
Spicy: If you like it spicy, add a teaspoon of chili powder or a few drops of hot sauce to the dressing.
