Badia Chipotle Ground Spice, 2.5 oz

Ground chipotle is dried, smoked jalapeño milled into a fine, rust-red powder. It carries the unmistakable smokiness of the morita and meco chiles it's made from, with steady medium heat and a faint sweetness. This 2.5 oz jar is the form to reach for when you want chipotle flavor distributed evenly through a rub, marinade, or finished dish — no soaking or blending required.

Common Uses

Build dry rubs for brisket, pork shoulder, chicken thighs, and skirt steak. Stir into adobo marinades for tacos al pastor, tinga de pollo, and grilled shrimp. Whisk into crema, mayo, or sour cream for tortas, elote, and burgers. Season chili, black beans, queso, and tomato-based salsas. Dust over roasted sweet potatoes, corn, or fried eggs.

Cuisine Context

Chipotle is central to Mexican home cooking — tinga, adobo, salsa de chipotle — and to Tex-Mex barbecue, where its smoke layers naturally with mesquite and oak. It's how cooks add depth to a dish in a single spoonful when there's no time to toast and soak whole pods.

Pro Tip

Bloom the powder in warm oil or melted butter for 30 seconds before adding liquid — it unlocks the smoke and rounds out the heat. Start with half a teaspoon per pound of meat and adjust up.
