• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper: Just a hint of heat to warm the dish.

How to Use Beef Stew Seasoning Mix

For every 2 pounds of meat, add 2-3 tablespoons of the seasoning mix while browning the meat. This ensures every bite is infused with rich flavor. Once your meat is browned, simply add your favorite vegetables, broth, and other stew ingredients, then let it simmer to perfection.

Tips for the Best Beef Stew

• Build Depth of Flavor: Brown your meat before adding liquids to enhance the savory taste.
• Experiment: Adjust the amount of seasoning to suit your preferences. Add extra cayenne for more heat or reduce salt if needed.
• Double Duty: This mix is not just for stew—use it to season roasts, soups, or even as a rub for grilled meats.
