What no Jalapeno or Worchester powder?

[DATsBBQ]

What no Jalapeno or Worchester powder?

Never been able to find worcestershire powder locally And until Gator annouced the rebirth of Texas Gun Powder, I'd never heard of Jalapeno powder

Most of the spices come from the Indian or Asian market. I find that they are fresher and cheaper than what you can get a Kings/Safeway/Whole Foods or Vitamin Cottage.

[3 star redneck]

you can get both from Pendery's, that where all mine come from for comp chili..... www.penderys.com

[Papa Tom]

Yeah Dats I have what you have and a couple more.
Agree on the ethnic markets Mexican and Asian typically fresher and cheaper. I see Wally has Watkins spices now, haven't tried them recently but they used to be really good.

[JaCK2U2]

Yep, Pendery's is a big source for me. Worst powder is good - used on a brisket a couple times. Of course, Tone's, and whatever I find at the Mex. grocery.

Wally around here just started getting Watkins about 6 months ago. I've been using a little and there better than most I can find around here. Although there's not much to compare to. Got a little bulk food pantry a little ways up the road. Not to bad, but doesn't have a great selection. Order most from spice houses online.

Wouldn't it be easier to say what you don't have?
And I thought my husband gave me a hard time for my spice cabinet.....

[JamesB]

I ain't got no shrimp powder...

[bowhnter]

I don't have near that much, but if you ave an Albertons near you and it is closing, they have 50% off spices.

[mgwerks]

I buy the tiny dried shrimp at the oriental market, and into the blender they go. Instant shrimp powder - good in Cajun food, seafood, and believe it or not, on some eggs!
