Inspired by open flames, cast-iron skillets, and the untamed spirit of the American West, Yellowstone Salt™ is our signature cowboy-style sea salt blend. Made with mesquite-smoked sea salt, bourbon-infused crushed peppercorns, and habanero chili peppers, this bold seasoning was built to stand up to the fire — whether you’re grilling under the stars, smoking brisket low and slow, or searing in cast iron.
Here’s how to use Yellowstone Salt™ across proteins and dishes to capture true frontier flavor.
Grilling, BBQ & Campfire Cooking
🥩 Beef – Ribeye, Brisket & Burgers
