I was making a pork chop recipe that called for Montreal Steak seasoning. Not having any, I found this seasoning substitute. Very good combination of flavors . I did not read closely enough that I needed dill seed instead of dill weed - so I had to substitute (added 1 teaspoon of dill weed instead of the 1 TBL of dill seed required). Will try it again with the dill seed - I understand dill seed has a nuttier-type of flavor. I also didn't have a mortar and pestle so I put the spices in a plastic zip lock sandwich bag and pounded lightly with a hammer. Last, I did not add the salt as the recipe I was making it for had plenty of salt in a gravy. But it was really good on those pork chops and made the kitchen smell great!
