Built on a foundation of Flor Blanca sea salt and hearty wood-smoked salt, this blend captures the savory, peppery, garlicky bite found in Italian beef sandwiches, Chicago dogs, giardiniera, and backyard grilling across the Midwest.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLayered with Calabrian chilies for fruity heat, mustard powder for tang and bite, celery seed for classic Chicago-style depth, and coarse black pepper for steakhouse grit, CHI SALT™ delivers bold, balanced flavor with a subtle vinegar-like brightness.

Being from NYC, I was hesitant about the famous deep-dish pizza, but wow—NY pizza still rules. During that year, I visited Chicago so many times for work that I was able to experience some of the finest restaurants, go to Soldier Field, catch a Cubs game, and when a week-long meeting ended on a Thursday and I had nothing to do—of course it was football season. While the Bears were away, they weren’t far, so I drove to Green Bay to watch them play their nemesis. This was when Rodgers was the Packers’ QB—yeah, that long ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"798\" data-end=\"991\"\u003eAnyways, back to my story—since my daughter is attending the University of Wisconsin–Madison, we get to visit Chicago often, and she already has plans to live in Chicago after school—too funny.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quest For Fire, LLC.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51763909263641,"sku":null,"price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/6906\/7033\/files\/CHISALT_BoldMidwestSeaSaltBlend.png?v=1765693246","url":"https:\/\/questforfire.com\/products\/chi-salt%e2%84%a2-bold-midwest-blend","provider":"Quest For Fire, LLC.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
