The famous Red Robin Spice is a delicious blend of spices with a irresistibly smoky, spicy and earthy taste. Today we want to show you how to make it from scratch using our copycat recipe. It’s easy and quick, ready in just minutes!
Red Robin is an American restaurant chain known for its gourmet burgers, fries, and signature condiment. Customers liked theirs secret spice so much so that the company started selling it online and in supermarkets. But if you’re looking to use the Red Robin spice at home and can’t get hold of it, we’ve got you covered.
In our copycat spice blend, we blended nutritional yeast and smoked paprika powder with onion powder, garlic powder, sage, and oregano. Then we topped it off with celery salt, tomato powder, cumin and black pepper. All you have to do is put the ingredients in a blender or mortar and grind them into a fine red powder. Simply!
The full ingredient list of the original Red Robin spice remains a secret. But by looking at the ones listed on the label and guessing the hidden ones, we could round up a recipe that’s very close to the real thing. We made just a few changes to bring you a healthier recipe with easy-to-find ingredients.
First, we swapped yeast extract for nutritional yeast, which is available at supermarkets or health food stores. Then we replaced paprika and smoke flavoring with smoked paprika and finally left out the dried cane syrup. Also, we used just a little celery salt and no extra salt, meaning the seasoning is both sugar free and low in sodium.
Now that you know how to make it, it’s time to use this addictive condiment in your favorite dishes. It goes with pretty much anything, but we especially love it with hash browns and veggie burgers. You can also use it to prepare dry rubs, marinades or sauces and even add it to stews and casseroles. Yummy!
