Montreal Steak Seasoning typically includes garlic, coriander, black pepper, cayenne pepper flakes, dill seed, and salt. Some variations may also include onion powder, red pepper flakes, and other spices. The exact proportions of the ingredients can vary, allowing for a range of flavors.

Usage[edit | edit source]

While it is most commonly used as a rub for steak, Montreal Steak Seasoning can also be used to season other types of meat, such as chicken and pork. It can also be used in marinades and gravies, or to flavor vegetable dishes.
