Badia Chili Powder Seasoning, 9 oz

Chili Powder Seasoning is the Tex-Mex chili blend — ground chiles built out with cumin, garlic, oregano, and salt into the all-in-one base that defines a pot of Texas-style chili con carne. The 9 oz size matches how this spice actually gets used: by the tablespoon, not the pinch.

Common Uses

Build chili con carne, chili verde, and white chicken chili. Rub onto skirt steak for fajitas, brisket for barbacoa, or chicken thighs for tacos. Season ground beef for hard-shell tacos and taco salad, stir into enchilada sauce and Frito pie, dust on roasted corn for elote-style street corn, and bloom into pinto or charro beans.

Cuisine Context

This is the spice that built Tex-Mex. Texas chili parlors, San Antonio chili queens, and home cooks across the Southwest rely on a pre-mixed chili powder as the backbone of long-simmered meat dishes. It also crosses easily into Mexican-American kitchens for taco nights, refried beans, and chili-lime rubs on grilled corn and shrimp.

Pro Tip

Bloom it in fat — toast the powder in beef drippings or oil for 30 seconds before adding liquid. Raw chili powder tastes dusty; bloomed chili powder turns deep red and unlocks the cumin and oregano underneath.
