Spicy Mustard Seasoning - Scorching Afternoon

Scorching Afternoon – Spicy Mustard seasoning is bold, aggressive, and built for cooks who want flavor that cuts through everything else on the plate. Ground mustard leads with sharp tang and nose-clearing intensity, immediately setting the tone. White vinegar powder reinforces that bite, creating a bright, acidic snap that wakes up rich meats and heavy dishes.

From there, the heat ramps up fast. Cayenne pepper, jalapeño powder, and Red Savina habanero layer escalating spice, delivering a burn that lingers and demands respect. Garlic and onion provide savory depth, while oregano adds a subtle herbal note that keeps the blend from feeling one-dimensional. A touch of sugar rounds the edges just enough to balance the acidity without softening the impact.

Scorching Afternoon is ideal for wings, pork, sausages, burgers, and anything that benefits from tangy heat. It shines on grilled and smoked meats, where the mustard base enhances bark formation and penetrates deep into the protein. It’s also excellent as a finishing seasoning for sandwiches, roasted vegetables, and hearty sides.

This is not a mild blend — and it isn’t meant to be. Scorching Afternoon is intense, sharp, and unapologetic, delivering heat and tang in equal measure for those who like their flavor loud and their spice undeniable.
