McCormick CulinaryBayou Cajun Seasoning, 21 oz - One 21 Ounce Container of Cajun Seasoning Made With Aromatic Spices for Catfish, Crawfish, Jambalaya and Gumbo

Five guys Cajun seasoning and the go to seasoning for everything in my house, including as the primary rub on many smoked meats we make in our pellet smoker. The seasoning is great, especially since salt isn't the primary ingredient.

My teen suddenly fell in love with cajun flavors and spice after trying Cajun fries at Five Guys, so I sampled a few from amazon. Tried Slap Ya Mama Cajun Seasoning Original & Hot Blend 8 oz Two Pack and the Tony Chachere's Bold Creole Seasoning 7oz and the Tony Chacheres More Spice Seasoning (Single). The hot slap ya mama is the only one which is mostly spice -- heat with a punch without too much salt. The other three, the original is very salty, but good if used like salt -- kid friendly.The more spice is still very salty, and also mild, tastes mostly of black pepper. Tony's bold has more heat, but is still fairly salty and should also be used like salt. Since we were looking for heat the Bold and this in hot version are hands down our favorites. If adding to already seasoned foods, then the slap ya mama hot is the way to go. By the way, none of these have the same flavors as the fries at five guys.August 2014McCormick Bayou Cajun (no Msg) Seasoning , 21 oz Is definitely the one at Five Guys -- and our favorite -- lots of spice flavors and spicy as well without being overwhelmingly salty. It does have salt, so you can use like salt for a very spicy finish, or use in addition to salt for a milder effect. Of all five it has the most spice notes beyond heat, full of flavorful herbs.Slap Ya Mama Hot is the spiciest in terms of heat.

This stuff is absolutely great. I tried it for homemade Jambalaya and probably didn't add enough, so I didn't think it did a lot. Also, I used brown rice, so I may have needed more. User error I believe. Putting it on fresh tilapia was out of this world good. I had leftover mac and cheese, threw some corn, tofu and maybe a teaspoon of this in there, and it transformed the dish. Highly recommended.

Truly one of my favorite seasonings to use, you definitely get that Cajun taste that you're looking for. If you don't want your food to become spicy then do use a lot of it but a light usage will still give you that Cajun taste

Our family purchased this seasoning because we LOVE Five Guys Cajun Fries and after getting on google to find out how their seasoning was made, several people said it was McCormick Cajun Seasoning.Well, we purchased two regular fries and asked for the seasoning on the side. We then saved the seasoning and ordered McCormicks here on Amazon and we can honestly say it is NOT the same. Five Guys is almost like very fine like dust. Whereas McCormick's is very course and even has large flakes in it. Additionally, the seasoning from Five Guys is a wee bit more spicy and appears to have less sodium.However, McCormicks is very good! We mixed ours with some McCormick Cheyenne pepper (which we also ordered on Amazon) and, other than the fact that McCormick's season has larger flakes and more sodium, it almost matches Five Guys perfectly-- almost!We have no regrets. It's great on potatoes, salmon and veggies.

Good on popcorn also on fish salads dip

This stuff is fantastic If you're doing chicken on the grill use this if you're doing steak on the grill use this fantastic

I dont normally leave reviews but I was tremendously impressed with this seasoning.Topped to the brim.
