The Montreal steak seasoning ingredients are simple and you probably already have everything you need in the pantry: 1 Sea salt 2 Smoked paprika 3 Garlic powder 4 Crushed black pepper 5 Red pepper flakes 6 Onion powder 7 Coriander 8 Dill seed
It works perfectly as a dry rub (much like a brisket rub ), and is one of the best steak seasonings for grilling. Is Montreal steak seasoning gluten-free? I never promise that store bought mixes are gluten-free, because you never know if they are adding wheat or other ingredients as fillers or anti-caking agents.
Montreal steak seasoning can also be made into a marinade. Add 1/2 teaspoon of the mix to 1/4 cup oil, 1/4 cup water, and 2 tablespoons vinegar. Store the seasoning in an airtight container and label the container with the date you prepared it. Keep in a cool, dark place for up to six months.
When using, make sure to bring the steak to room temperature by taking it out of the refrigerator 30 to 60 minutes beforehand. Add the seasoning (to your taste) immediately before cooking; if put on too far in advance, the salt will draw water out of the meat and make for a dry steak. The spice rub can also be used on chicken, pork, or salmon.
