McCormick Culinary Pickling Spice, 12 oz - One 12 Ounce Container of Mixed Pickling Spice, Best for Seasoning Pickles, Corned Beef, Pot Roasts and More

This is by far the best pickeling spice on the market! When I make corned beef and cabbage I throw the spice packet that came with the brisket out, and use a heaping tablespoon of this Mc Cormick spice instead because it contains a much better blend of the pickeling spices that you find in the everyday grocery store mixes. To add a bit of heat to the meat, and vegetables I add a half teaspoon of crushed red pepper while cooking. When I make sauerbraten this is the only spice I will use in order to get that robust flavor in the gravy. It's a large package so what I do is keep a quarter cup of this spice in a glass jar for immediate use, and then store the rest in a seal a meal bag in order to keep the spices fresh for future use.

I was looking for more pickling spices to add to my slow cooker with corned beef. This did the trick nicely!

It was just what I needed and couldnt find at my grocery store for my corned beef. It did come with a small packet of pickling spice, but I like to use more… Nice big “jar” of it…. 12 ounces.

Wasn't paying close attention and didn't see anyone mention it when reading reviews, so was surprised when my corned beef came out spicy. Not overly hot but definitely enough to make your mouth tingly and slightly numb, which for me is too much to be able to taste the other flavors very well. It's not a bad flavor but wasn't quite what I was going for, good to know for future usage though. Will be using what I made for hash instead of eating on its own. Again hard to tell 100% because of the chilis but I think the mix of spices beyond that produces the flavor I'm looking for so will just pick some of the chilis out next time.

Good flavor for corned beef. Huge size. I’ll be pickling everything! Easy to shake out or measure the amount needed.

Just as described. Could not find this size locally.

Pickeling spice is expensive so this is a good deal.

This is very very good !! Used this for the first time with a farm raised 8lbs corbed beef brisket. It was great. Such a good flavor that does transfer to the brisket during the boil. And your house will smell to the heavens. I went a little heavy with the spice with such a big brisket. Man it was amazing.10 out of 10.
