    Maple flavoring/ seasoning

    Yea I've tried a lot of pre-made sausage seasonings and yet to find one really flavorful. So made up my own recipe that my family thinks is really good(simple really, lot trial-and-error) but syrup and maple sugar tend to burn. Gonna look up the fenugreek

    Bourbon seasoning

    Ok maybe someone here can help me. I'm looking for a "bourbon seasoning" to add to different things and seems just adding Jack Daniel's does not add the flavor I'm looking for, very faint at best. Thanks in advance for any info.
