Slightly expensive spice blend, focusing on BBQ flavor that is mostly cumin powder and brown sugar.

TLDR: This is a slightly expensive spice blend that focuses on the BBQ flavor profile and tastes mostly of cumin and brown sugar.- The package I received included the spice blend wrapped in a bubbled wrapping.- The blend's price is more than what I would normally pay for something like this, but it is special in the fact that the salt content in the blend is plant based.- In terms of how "BBQ" the blend is, I would say that it gets the job done. Obviously, if you were to get each component of the blend separately and combine them into your dish then it doesn't match, but this is such an easy and convenient approach that I am more than willing to use this at every opportunity.- The main flavor I get from this blend is cumin powder. It is the main scent as well, plus garlic powder and paprika. The sweet and smokiness included is very prevalent as well.- There is a mild kick to it, but just enough to emphasize the food's flavor.- I liked it on some roasted veggies, but i can definitely see it working very well with some pork or pan fried chicken or even in a burger.

Love love love this seasoning

I’m seriously impressed with the SaltWise Low Sodium BBQ Seasoning! Finding a seasoning that delivers that rich, smoky BBQ flavor without being overloaded with salt can be difficult, but this one really hits the mark.The flavor is smoky, savory, and perfectly balanced, and it works incredibly well on just about everything. I’ve used it on chicken, burgers, and vegetables, and it adds a delicious BBQ flavor without overpowering the natural taste of the food. It’s especially good on the grill. The seasoning creates that mouthwatering smoky taste that makes you want to go back for seconds. Not to much heat or spice.I also really like that it’s made with plant based Salicornia salt, which is fairly new to me, and is non GMO, gluten free, and contains no MSG. It’s nice to have a seasoning option that lets you enjoy bold BBQ flavor while being more mindful of sodium.The container is a convenient size, and a little goes a long way. If you enjoy grilling or simply want to add some smoky BBQ flavor to everyday meals, I definitely recommend giving SaltWise a try. This has quickly become one of the seasonings I reach for most often!

Big BBQ flavor without all the sodium… this seasoning is a winner!

I’m a huge BBQ fan, so I couldn’t wait to sprinkle this on dinner… and wow, it absolutely delivered! The smoky flavor is rich without being overpowering, and I honestly never would have guessed it was a low sodium seasoning. That’s usually where flavor gets sacrificed, but not here!I tried it on grilled chicken first, then roasted potatoes the next night, and everyone kept asking what I used because everything tasted so much better. Even my picky eater went back for seconds, which almost never happens! That alone made me smile.I also love that it’s made without MSG and still packs so much flavor. It gives food that fresh-off-the-grill taste without having to drown everything in salt. This has quickly earned a permanent spot in my spice cabinet, and I can already tell it’s going to get a lot of use. So happy I got to try this one!

A flavorful seasoning from a brand I love!

I’ve really been enjoying this BBQ seasoning. It adds great smoky flavor without being overly salty, and it’s perfect for chicken, beef, vegetables, and more. I love that it’s made with plant-based salicornia salt, making it a great lower-sodium option. I already love this brand, and this seasoning definitely didn’t disappoint. It’s become a staple in my kitchen.

Delicious BBQ flavor

This seasoning is a blend of very high quality spices. It is moderately spicy, but you can easily adjust to suit your tastes by adding more or less. I appreciate the use of salicornia plants as a source of salts. The savory qualities are more complex than if sodium chloride was the sole source of saltiness. Definitely worth a try!

First ingredient is brown sugar.

The shaker is glass with a wood cap, and arrived in dual layers of bubble wrap. The salt content is impressive, only 45 mg in 1/4 teaspoon but it tastes like more. The pepper has a prominent spiciness. Pleasantly warms the mouth but it doesn't burn. I love the flavor profile, and it is versatile to a variety of dishes. Priced at $7.99. I really enjoyed what it did to cottage cheese mixed with pineapple.

Good flavor without all the salt

I tried this SaltWise Low Sodium BBQ rub on pork ribs and my family enjoyed it. First off, the smoky, savory BBQ flavor has a little kick and a nice salty taste without the extra sodium. I appreciate this because my husband and I are both trying to cut back on sodium. I used it as a dry rub before smoking the ribs, then sprinkled a little extra on them after they came off the grill. The rub stayed on the ribs while they were cooking and gave them a really nice bark. I think the smoky flavor would also me good on chicken and other meats. It has a lot less sodium than my usual rubs, but it still tastes properly seasoned. And it works great as both a rub and a finishing sprinkle. Overall I'm happy with this SaltWise BBQ rub.

Great addition to your kitchen!

I was pleasantly surprised by this BBQ seasoning. It has a classic smoky barbecue flavor that works well on chicken, burgers, pork, vegetables, and even roasted potatoes. Despite being low sodium, I didn't feel like I was sacrificing flavor.One of the first things I noticed was the packaging. The seasoning comes in a sturdy glass container that gives it a premium, high-end feel and looks great displayed on a spice rack.I also appreciate that it's made with plant-based salicornia salt and contains all-natural ingredients with no MSG, while being gluten-free and non-GMO. It's a flavorful alternative for anyone looking to reduce sodium without giving up that familiar BBQ taste.Overall, this is a quality seasoning that tastes great, looks nice in the kitchen, and makes an excellent addition to any spice collection. It will **** versatility to your kitchen. It is a good value.

A Low Sodium Alternative to Traditional BBQ Seasoning

The SaltWise Low Sodium BBQ Seasoning is a great way to enjoy that smoky and slightly sweet flavor of BBQ without being worried about your sodium intake. Salicornia salt is a plant-based salt with only a fraction of the sodium of traditional table salt. Salicornia is nutrient-dense, containing dietary fiber, and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and iron, and it also has antioxidant properties. The rest of the BBQ seasoning is rounded out with cumin, chili, paprika, black pepper, brown sugar and garlic powder. Making it a very versatile and tasty additional to all types of types of foods.I sprinkled a little over some homemade French fries, and I was impressed with the result. The BBQ seasoning elevated the taste of the fries, and the larger crystals of the seasoning allowed me to experience the flavor of the various ingredients contained in the seasoning. Rather than it just being a finely ground powder.I also used the seasoning with some ground beef hamburgers that I prepared on my grill. I added a couple of tablespoons of the BBQ seasoning into the beef before forming the burgers and I then topped the burgers off by sprinkling some seasoning over them while cooking. I was thoroughly happy with the result and the burgers where just as flavorful as with traditional seasoning containing table salt.Overall, I really enjoyed the SaltWise Low Sodium BBQ Seasoning. The flavor was spot on and for someone that watches their sodium intake. It makes a nice addition to my pantry. The seasoning is also natural, and it does contain any artificial colors or flavoring. The only thing that may present a problem for some people is the cost. The SaltWise seasoning is on the pricey side.

Nice flavor addition

This is a pretty good seasoning that adds a decent amount of flavor although I have 3 different blends from this brand and this barbecue one is probably my least favorite but only because I had to use quite a bit more to really get that barbecue flavor. It has brown sugar listed as the first ingredient so I'm wondering how it has zero calories. Obviously I'm a fan of that, but how.... I like that it's low sodium and plant based and that you can get the barbecue flavor without whatever meat you add this to having to be drenched in sauce. The price is pretty comparable to other brands but the quality of the jar and lid is better so the value seems above average in my opinion. I’ll continue to buy from this brand.

Super excited for barbecue

I'm actually super excited about this flavoring. This is going to be amazing on chips, chicken, pork, beef, anything you can put barbecue on. I've gotten several types of seasoning from this brand, and everything has been really great. The seafood one was my least favorite, but I've tried several. This has a great barbecue flavor. It's not super strong, but it's noticeable, so it's a good rub before throwing some barbecue sauce on. I've seen people complaining about the brand being too salty tasting, and I'm always like how. It's definitely not a very salty taste. I usually add just a little bit of salt, but I still like that I have less salt overall. My boyfriend loves these because he's not supposed to have salt, so he likes the flavor that these give without worrying about the health consequences. He's not crazy about barbecue though, so this one is for me. It's about the same price as other low sodium seasonings. This brand is kind of unique in the ingredients that it uses, so it's hard to compare it to anything else. If you're looking for unique and low salt, this it's a great option.

Does not taste any different.

I expected this to taste different but no, it tastes like ordinary barbecue seasoning. Salty, smoky, peppery. The following are some thoughts to consider based on initial first impressions.Pros- No different from run of the mill barbecue sauce.- The salt in it is plant based, so no worries about lead content or other heavy metals.- Did not clump up easily in the humidity of summer.Cons- Small bottle but hefty price. One star taken away for this reason.Overall, I would recommend this Barbecue seasoning only if you can afford the price.

Delicious Complex Spicy, Slightly Sweet Blend with 1/15th the Sodium of Salt! Pricey but Worth It!

This SaltWise Low Sodium BBQ Seasoning is an tasty, innovative seasoning blend made with plant-based Salicornia salt. Salicornia plants are succulents grown in salt marshes and tidal flats all over the world. This one, apparently, is made in India. Salicornia plants absorb some salt from the salt water they grow in, so the powder tastes salty. But it has only 45 mg of sodium per quarter teaspoon, compared with the 575 to 600 mg per quarter teaspoon of standard table salt. It also contains 40mg of potassium. (But no Vitamin D, calcium, or iron—so why bother listing them?). Salicornia is touted as having superfood components, but if this green Salicornia salt has any, they are not listed.This low sodium BBQ seasoning thankfully avoids the temptation to make the Salicornia salt the primary ingredient. Brown sugar is the first ingredient, followed by cumin, chili powder, paprika, black pepper—and then Salicornia salt. The resulting blend is absolutely delicious! Very slightly sweet, with some real complexity and a noticeable kick to it! This is a very skillfully titrated blend of flavors!The bottle says “2025 Mindful Awards Salt Product of the Year.” I have reviewed two other SaltWise seasonings. They all say the same thing. It means nothing.I used this BBQ seasoning to make seasoned fried potatoes. I figured that the potatoes, being basically a blank slate, would really showcase the flavor profile of the seasoning. They sure did—and they were fantastic! My only regret is that it took 3 tablespoons of seasoning to flavor two cans of potatoes—almost half the bottle--so this 2.3 oz bottle is unlikely to last very long!Low sodium BBQ seasoning can be had for $1.10 to $7.11 per ounce. Most costs around $1.50 to $2.50 per ounce. At the list price of $7.99 for 2.3 ounces ($3.48 per ounce—Amazon’s calculation is incorrect), this low sodium BBQ seasoning is quite expensive. It is, however, a particularly well balanced and tasty BBQ seasoning blend. So if you like the taste, it may be worth the extra buck an ounce to you.This low sodium BBQ seasoning is one of SaltWise’s best blends. Yes, it has some Salicornia salt in it, but relatively little by volume compared with the other spices in the mix—as is proper for BBQ seasoning. This seasoning has just the right balance of sweet, salty, and spicy, with depth and complexity. It’s surprisingly delicious! You totally won’t miss the salt!

Great flavor, no salt — just wish it were priced a bit lower

I've been really happy with this BBQ seasoning. As someone watching my sodium intake for heart health, it's great to find a rub that delivers real smoky BBQ flavor without any added salt. I've used it on chicken, steak, and roasted vegetables, and it adds a ton of depth every time — it doesn't taste like a "diet" seasoning at all.My only hesitation is the price. It's a bit higher than I'd expect for the size, so I've found myself using it more sparingly than I'd like, just to make the jar last. If it were priced a little more competitively, I'd use it far more liberally and probably keep a backup on hand.Overall, it's become a staple in my spice cabinet — just budget for it accordingly.

SO good on potatoes!

I ordered this mostly because I like having lower sodium options on hand when I'm trying to generically kick-up the flavor profile of a dish. But this BBQ seasoning has absolutely exceeded my expectations! I've used up nearly 1/3 of the bottle already, and normally I just don't go through blends that quickly. The bottle is a very typical spice-aisle size. It's not warehouse-membership-store huge, but it's also not one of those tiny sample sizes. The seasoning flows freely and sprinkles out without clumping, which has been great! The flavor is really good - I wouldn't know it was lower sodium if it wasn't labelled - salicornia tastes really good! I started out using it on some meats - chicken and things like that, but grabbed for it one day when I wanted to amp up some popcorn, and the barbecue flavor was intense and perfect! And then I added it to some oven-roasted potatoes, and that was game-changer! It tasted so much better than my old salt-pepper-garlic blend that I'd used before! I've made roasted potatoes about 3x a week since then, and always reach for this bottle! It's so versatile that I can use it on lots of different things. I even sprinkled it onto a macaroni salad once. It's not super spicy, but you can always add a hit of cayenne or red pepper flakes to fix that. It's very flavorful, and to me that's way more important. I can't get a lot of good quality low-sodium seasonings locally, so I'm really glad to have come across the Saltwise brand - I'll be trying everything else they make in the low-sodium category!

Love, love, sodium

I bought this because I was intrigued by the low sodium. The fact that I can get the same flavor from this seasoning compared to other seasonings that are comparable, with low sodium is amazing. It taste great and the fact that it is clean and made from plants is even better. I know exactly what I’m putting in my body

Great flavor for a low-sodium seasoning.

I've been really impressed with this low-sodium BBQ seasoning. As I've gotten older, I've been making an effort to reduce my sodium intake, and products like this make that transition much easier because they don't sacrifice flavor.When I first tasted the seasoning straight from the bottle, I was a little skeptical because it reminded me more of taco seasoning than BBQ. However, once I used it to season baked chicken, I completely changed my mind. The flavors really come together during cooking, creating a delicious BBQ taste with subtle smoky notes that complement the meat without overpowering it.This seasoning is versitile and can be used on much more than just chicken. I like to make seasoned fries, baked beans, or belive it or not using a small amount of this in baked mac and cheese subtly changes up the traditional dish in an amazing way. This seasoning is great to use at family cookouts or potlucks. While 8 dollars is a little pricey, I'd still say it is and okay value if you are needing to cut back on sodium.One thing I appreciate most is that it delivers plenty of flavor on its own, so I never felt the need to add extra salt. It's a great option for anyone trying to cut back on sodium without your food tasting like cardboard.Overall, this is a flavorful, well-balanced seasoning that makes healthy eating much more enjoyable. If you're looking for a low-sodium BBQ seasoning that tastes just as good as the regular sodium, I definitely recommend this.

Great, Slightly Sweet BBQ Flavor

This is the second spice blend from SaltWise that I've tried and both of them have been good. This BBQ seasoning has a really good flavor; it reminds me of the BBQ flavoring on potato chips. It isn't spicy and has a little sweetness from the brown sugar.I don't put much stock in things labeled as "superfoods" and know basically nothing about salicornia, but I like that the spice is low sodium and doesn't have the overpowering salt taste a lot of spice blends have.This seasoning is really good on potatoes and roast vegetables, and I think it would be delicious on popcorn but I haven't tried that yet.
