Hi Mountain Bacon Seasoning Making Bacon Better

Can bacon be improved? Are we not happy with the salty , smokey flavor? Surprisingly it seems we're not. That's where Hi Mountain Seasonings comes in with their latest creation  - flavor sprinkles for those strips in three exciting flavors.

Hi Mountain Seasonings is devoted to improving meat. They're more known for beef jerkies - which are amazing  - and marinades. Carnivores can also buy  the company's curing and smoking equipment such as aromatic cans to have highly flavored cuts. They came out with burger seasonings and it made sense that they should create one for bacon.I decided to try it, to amp up the flavor  of vegan soy bacon.
As you can see vegan bacon does leave a lot to be desired. The plus side is that's it not super soaked in its' own fat and  it is healthy for you. There are three flavors are Black Pepper & Brown Sugar, Sticky Bun and Pineapple Sriracha.
It's just liberally sprinkling on the flavorings and microwaving for two minutes.
The Sticky Bun flavor was sweet and full of vanilla. I can see it topping a French toast strata. As for the brown sugar and pepper, it would be great if you were serving pancakes or griddle cakes, with the strips on top. As for the pineapple blended with sriracha , think appetizers where the flavored bacon is wrapped around pineapple or mango chunks.If you're into snacking a bowl of bacon - as decadent as that sounds - then sprinkle the flavorings over it - or mix it with popcorn - for real movie time treat.

Can bacon be improved? Yes!Dash some Hi Mountain Bacon Seasonings on it for a new spin on a classic favorite.

Hi Mountain Jerky The Perfect Snack

Now that the weather is finally warming up, it's time to head out on hikes and picnics. What goes with these? Beef jerky, especially Hi Mountain'seasonings'tasty  bits of dried beef. They're the perfect take along for any trail blazer.

I like Hi Mountain' Seasoning's products. They're primarily known for their rubs but they also have a line of jerky that makes for a nice nosh or can even be added to dishes for some zing. The company originally had jerky curing kits where home chefs can make their own. Now the company has a new line of ready made strips.
Above is the pepper, coated with a ground black pepper. This is an eye opener that reminds me of the Italian cacciatore with its' heat. It may be jerky but I can imaging frying this up with eggs for a take on bacon.I can also seeing it cut up into tiny bits for a spinach salad.
The hickory flavor is  mild, perfect for pairing with veggies .It could even go with a sourdough bread and a chunk of cheddar for a quick meal during a hike or day at the beach. I like the mild flavor and it hickory flavor.
The mesquite flavor is a sweet , smoky treat and again it's the perfect bite for a hike. It has the mesquite's sweet  earthy flavor, heightened by the addition of sugar.
Of course,there's the original.
It has the beef's strong mineral flavor without all the bells and whistles.It's a nice garlic-y flavor  thanks to the addition of the spice and again I could see adding this to any egg dish or even topping burgers with it  for a chewy, meat lover's meal.

Hi Mountain Seasonings' jerkys are the perfect take along for hiking. They're also fun to incorporate into classic recipes. Try the flavors today for some chewy, tasty fun!
