Ingredients
  

Cowboy Ranch Seasoning Blend

  • 0.33 cup dry powdered buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons dried onion flakes
  • 2 teaspoons dried dill weed
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 0.5 teaspoon cumin

For Cowboy Ranch Dip (Optional)

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 0.5 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons cowboy ranch seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 0.25 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 1 tablespoon whole milk (optional, as needed for desired consistency for dressing)

Instructions
 

Cowboy Ranch Seasoning Blend

  • In a small bowl, whisk all the seasoning ingredients together until well blended. For a more finely-ground seasoning, pulse the mixture in a food processor. This will make about ¾ cup of seasoning mix.
  • Store the seasoning in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It will last for up to 3 months.

Cowboy Ranch Dip (Optional)

  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, 2 tablespoons of cowboy ranch seasoning, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Whisk everything together until the mixture is smooth and the seasoning is fully incorporated. This will yield about 1 ¾ cups of dip.
  • Store dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last up to a week.

Cowboy Ranch Dressing (Optional)

  • Adjust the thickness of the dip mixture into a dressing by adding 1-2 tablespoons of whole milk, or enough to reach your desired consistency. This yields approximately 1 ¾-2 cups of dressing.
  • Store dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last up to a week.

Notes

This versatile seasoning can be used as a dry rub for meats or as the base for a delicious dip or dressing. Adjust the cayenne pepper to your preferred spice level.
