Tired of generic taco seasoning packets loaded with salt and fillers? Achieving an authentic, vibrant flavor starts with a better blend. We believe a truly healthy taco seasoning enhances your ingredients without overpowering them. Our rubs at Shake to Elevate offer a simple way to transform your taco night into a memorable culinary event, using clean, bold spices.
Why Your Tacos Deserve More Than a Packet
Most store-bought taco seasoning packets rely on a few predictable ingredients: excessive salt, sugar, and chemical anti-caking agents. This approach often creates a one-dimensional, salty taste that masks the natural flavor of your meat or vegetables. Instead, aim for a balanced seasoning that incorporates salty, sweet, sour, bitter, and umami notes to enhance, rather than overpower, your ingredients. These packets prioritize convenience, but that convenience comes at the expense of quality and health. You end up with a meal that tastes processed rather than fresh and exciting. Health-conscious cooks had to make this compromise for too long.
When you’re taking the time to select fresh ingredients, why settle for a seasoning that dulls their flavor? A truly great seasoning should compliment its principal ingredient by enhancing its inherent qualities. It should build layers of complexity with smoky, savory, and aromatic elements. By moving away from preservative-laden packets, you regain control over your food. This allows your ingredients to shine while still delivering the bold taco flavor you crave.
Two New Ways to Build Complex Flavor
This is where using a high-quality dry rub makes all the difference. In our mission to deliver flavor without compromise, Shake to Elevate has launched two new blends perfect for your next taco night. For those who love a classic, fiery kick, our Red Rebellion Dry Rub is an ideal choice. It delivers a complex and savory heat from chili and cayenne pepper, balanced with rich notes of garlic and paprika. It’s the perfect foundation for an incredible beef, chicken, or tofu taco seasoning.
For a different, yet equally delicious experience, our new Smokey Sunrise Dry Rub offers a deep, smoldering flavor. It’s perfect for adding a rich, wood-fired taste to your meal. Think smoky chicken tinga, tender pork carnitas, or earthy roasted sweet potato tacos. These rubs provide a more robust texture and a sophisticated profile that goes far beyond a simple powder. They simplify your cooking while inspiring creativity.
- Classic Beef Tacos: Use Red Rebellion with ground beef for that bold, savory heat you know and love.
- Smoky Pork Carnitas: Generously coat a pork shoulder with Smokey Sunrise before slow-cooking for a tender, flavorful filling.
- Fiery Fish Tacos: A light dusting of Red Rebellion on cod or tilapia adds a kick that pairs perfectly with a cooling slaw.
- Roasted Veggie Tacos: Toss cauliflower and onions with Smokey Sunrise and olive oil for a delicious, plant-based option.
Flavor Without Compromise: The Healthy Choice
Choosing a healthier taco seasoning is also a better option. Our commitment to clean ingredients means you’ll never find chemical additives or preservatives in our rubs. We also exclude the unnecessary fillers commonly found in other seasonings.
Many brands use these to add bulk without enhancing flavor, but we believe every ingredient should count. The launch of Red Rebellion and Smokey Sunrise challenges the industry standard of using excessive salt and sugar. This approach empowers you to create intensely flavorful dishes while controlling the ingredients that go into your food. A truly healthy taco seasoning should contain high-quality spices instead of sodium.
This philosophy is at the heart of our brand. We believe you shouldn’t have to sacrifice your health goals for an amazing meal. Whether you’re managing your sodium intake or prefer clean eating, our blends give you the confidence that you’re serving your family the best. The complex profiles of our rubs demonstrate that authentic flavor originates from a sophisticated mix of spices, not from masking ingredients with salt.
