Welcome to HogWild Spices!
For those of you who are new to HogWild Spices, you are certainly in for a treat!
HogWild Spices are all natural, gourmet spice blends that we have created to enhance all types of foods. (Except desserts – so far!) They are wholesome, with no fillers, no soy products, no MSG, and no “anti caking” agents. We have found in our researches (which included a LOT of sampling) that the anti caking agents, such as silicone dioxide greatly affect the flavor of spice blends, and NOT in a good way! So we have kept them out. And it turns out that it is a myth that spice blends get all clogged up and solidify without these agents added. We have actually used our Original Italian Blend some 3 or 4 years after it was bagged, and if there was any clumping whatsoever, a good thump with your hand magically unclumps it
Another good thing about our Spice Blends are that as far as we are able, we keep the sodium content as low as possible. In fact, our Mexican Blend is completely sodium free. And our Italian Blend is low in sodium (only 97 mg per serving)! This blend is also sugar free and GLUTEN free!
So. Now you know that our HogWild Spices Spice Blends are good for you, you might want to know what the spices are good for!
Our HogWild Spices Original Italian Blend is a garlicky, savory spice blend that we literally use on nearly everything we cook. We use it on all meats, fish and vegetables. It is splendid on pasta, in rice, couscous, salads, and soups – as well as dips and sauces. We have been using HogWild Spices Original Italian Blend for over 6 years exclusively. In fact, we seldom (if ever) use salt and pepper at all anymore! We have loads of recipes for our Original Italian Blend on a page in this blog. Also, keep in mind that ANY recipe which calls for Salt, Pepper, Garlic, Onion, Oregano and other spices can ALWAYS use HogWild Spices instead! One Spice Blend in place of many. Cost efficient, isn’t it?
Our HogWild Spices Mexican Spice Blend has a traditional Mexican flavor profile with one major exception – it is NOT hot! We created it this way because one of us (me) is a complete and total sissy when it comes to hot foods! (although I will admit that I am learning as we experiment with other blends – more on that later). This blend is also sodium free, sugar free and gluten free!
The Mexican Blend is a rich, flavorful blend that has a zing to it, and makes creating great Mexican foods so easy! Check out our page for some great recipes like my famous Chili recipe (that only takes a minimum of 30 minutes to cook), Mexican Spaghetti, Quesadillas and so much more! If you like Mexican foods, you will really love our HogWild Spices Mexican Spice Blend!
So again, we welcome you to HogWild Spices! Please be sure to check out our “What’s in the Works” page. There you will find information on some of the great blends we have in R & D currently.
Where are HogWild Spices available? I used to be able to find it at Kroger in Lynchburg, VA but they no longer carry it. The original is an excellent blend to use on any meat. I am running low and want to get more. Thanks.
Michelle!
I’m totally hooked! Check out some of our recipes for other ideas, too!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
We do not have our products in Kroger any longer.
If you want some spice, we now carry it in 4 oz. jars for
$ 5.00 each. I will email you the information!
Thank you again for your lovely words!
By the way, have you tried the spice blend on vegetables? It is wonderful – especially on grilled veggies, or steamed, or … however!
Hi! I LOVE your spices, use them for almost everything.
I’ve run out and am wanting several more. I’m wondering if I could meet you somewhere locally to pick it up instead of having it shipped, like I did once before. Maybe Saturday? Just let me know, thanks. 
I am so very glad you love our spices!! I will email you and arrange for a time when we can meet in order to get you the spices!! Thank you again!!
I’m running out of Hogwild! I live in Vinton, and could pick up locally to save on shipping. Do you let people pick up from you in person? Please e-mail me the info if you do.
I just love the italian seasoning in my neatloaf! It really gave it an extra kick, which my husband thought was very good also! Thank you. Look forward to more recipes online!
Order I keyed indicated local pick up but not address. I live in Deltaville VA. Can you tell me the locations’ address to pick up orders.
Thanks
Roy,
I apologize for the delay in getting back to you. Our local pick up is for the Danville area (now). We recently moved here from Roanoke. We will change the order page to reflect that. You will need to have your order shipped to you. Unless you plan on being in or near Danville or Martinsville in the near future! Thanks, and again, I am sorry for the delay in getting back to you!
I’ve used the Italian spices in my “shells” and it was great my husband said what did you do different. So then i tried the cajun on hamburgersRgers and they loved them !!! can’t wait to try the rest!!!
Angie! We are so glad that you like the spices! Here is another thing you can do with the Cajun… Rich made some chili last week; and instead of using the Mexican Blend in there (which is how I usually make it, he used the Cajun Blend. It was OMG fabulous!! He used a couple of tablespoons to a pound of ground beef… and it really was awesome.
Thank you so much for letting us know what you think of the spices! Keep us posted on what else you do with them!
