Smoke & Powders - Mesquite

Mesquite is a popular flavor for BBQ dry-rubs, and Southwestern dishes. A hardwood that is cut into chips and used in smoking processes to add flavor to meats, Mesquite trees grow in dry soils in arid regions. When foods are roasted with a fire that includes mesquite chips, the food acquires a slightly sweet earthy and smoky flavor. This powdered version can be used in any application where the woodsy flavor of mesquite is desired.
