McCormick Dark Chili Powder, 20 oz

American chili powder is NOT the same as Aussie chili powder (which is simply ground capsicum/bell pepper). I use this often to make hot dog chili, mexican, and countless other dishes. Much more convenient than making my own every time it's needed in a recipe. Hopefully Amazon will expand the American seasoning on offer.

I was so excited to see this sold on Amazon because UK supermarkets only carry the dried Thai chili which does not work for authentic Mexican food! This is perfect to add that great depth of smoked Mexican chilis for any dish.

Perfecto. Llegó muy rápido.

This is my favorite chili powder by far. I even bring it overseas because I have not found another blend that tastes quite the same. There is something about this specific mix that makes it better than when I try to combine the ingredients myself. The balance of chili pepper, salt, garlic, and spices is just right, giving it a deep, smoky, and slightly earthy flavor that works perfectly in chili, soups, and stews. It adds richness without overwhelming heat and blends smoothly into sauces or marinades. The texture is fine and consistent, and the addition of silicon dioxide keeps it free flowing, which makes it easy to measure and mix evenly. I appreciate that the flavor holds up even after long storage, and the large 20-ounce container lasts a long time. Whether for cooking at home or seasoning dishes while abroad, this has become a staple in my kitchen. It is the kind of product that quietly outperforms everything else and makes you realize that the perfect spice mix sometimes cannot be replicated by hand.

As an American in the UK, it's often difficult to find products that are like the ones back home. Chili powder in the UK has a different flavor, and it lacked the comfort food taste. Now, I can make a Crock-Pot of chili and know I have the right chili powder for the job.
