When you want grilled, steakhouse-style flavor without relying on a complicated lineup of seasonings, The Spice Lab Chicago Chop Seasoning brings salt, garlic, pepper, brown sugar and hickory smoke together in one versatile blend.
Made for far more than chops, this smoky seasoning works across pork, chicken, steaks, burgers, seafood and roasted vegetables. Its balanced combination of savory aromatics, light sweetness and smoke makes it equally useful at the backyard grill, in the oven, in an air fryer or in a high-volume commercial kitchen. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Chicago Chop is designed to move easily between proteins and cooking methods. Sprinkle it over pork chops, steaks or chicken before grilling, use it to season salmon burgers or toss chicken wings with a little oil and seasoning before cooking.
It also works when outdoor grilling is not an option. Hickory smoke provides smoky character during oven roasting or air frying, while the garlic, onion and peppers create a savory foundation that complements meat, seafood and vegetables. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Bulk Seasoning for BBQ Restaurants, Food Trucks & CaterersThe 2-pound resealable bag and two-bag 4-pound option make Chicago Chop a practical bulk foodservice spice for kitchens that need a versatile seasoning across multiple menu items. It is well suited to BBQ restaurants, food trucks, caterers, concession vendors, mobile food vendors and other high-volume operations.
For a small BBQ vendor, one blend can cover steaks, chops, burgers, chicken, seafood and vegetable sides. That versatility makes the larger formats useful when simplifying prep and keeping a consistent flavor profile across several dishes.
Who's This For?- Backyard grillers looking for an easy smoky all-purpose seasoning.
- Home cooks who want grilled flavor from oven and air fryer recipes.
- Steak and burger fans who prefer savory seasoning with light sweetness.
- BBQ restaurants needing a versatile bulk seasoning for multiple proteins.
- Food trucks and mobile BBQ vendors with streamlined menus.
- Caterers, concession vendors and commercial kitchens cooking in volume.
- Season steaks, chops or chicken ahead of cooking and allow the meat to rest before it goes on the grill for deeper flavor.
- Toss wings with a little oil and Chicago Chop before grilling, roasting or air frying.
- Use it on salmon burgers when you want savory seasoning with a smoky finish.
- Try it on roasted vegetables to carry the same flavor profile from the main course into your sides.
- Because the blend contains brown sugar, monitor foods closely over intense direct heat to avoid excessive browning.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
