Seems like about 10-15 years ago there were only a handful of mainstream options
Now you're seeing a lot of the online influencers come up with their own brands. I think some people would rther support those people than the main "traditional" brands like Tony's. Have you tried any and do you prefer them over Tony's or Slap Ya Mama?

I like adding my own seasoning/spices, but this is really good, IMO…

That's what I normally use but I'm about ready for a new can and was wondering if some of the other smaller newer brands were worth checking out

I've been using Cooking with Hal, the Cajun lady. The Zydeco and Cajun Waltz is good and low sodium.

Tony's Bold* (one with less salt) or Richards.

I never use any of those “Cajun/Creole” spice blends as they are mostly salt and pepper anyway. However if you use them, got blaze’s blends are awesome. His chili blend especially which reminds me I need to order some more. That shite is incredible

I always loved Ball's Cajun Seasoning from the Lake Charles area. Always seemed to be a smoother blend of the salt with the other spices. See it on Amazon sometimes, but would love to pick it up at a store. Their distribution seems inconsistent.

Thanks, bookmarked.
Might try concocting some different blends for other cuisines

Tony’s & Poppa Earles are in my cabinet, as far as “Cajun”

Uncle larrys is the best. Mix it up with whatever one is on sale.

I've been using Harissa (staple from North Africa cuisine): Salt free, chilies, smoked paprika, cumin, caraway, fennel, garlic, coriander, black pepper, cinnamon, mint, ginger, and parsley.

With the plethora of seasonings I have in the cabinet. I have been just making my own. I try different recipes either from cookbooks or just online and modify as I go. Recently I’ve been using AI and helping me develop various different recipes not just Cajun or creole.

Cajun Two Step or Tony's Bold

I made a gumbo using NuNu's last weekend and it really came out good.
