Berdeaux’s Makes Delicious Sauces and Seasonings From Decades-Old Family Recipes

by Leave a Comment

Perfected family recipes passed down for more than 71 years are the secret to delicious seasonings at Berdeaux’s Vintage Sauces and Seasonings.

They uphold many of the same traditions with these recipes that were developed in the 1900s at the Pickwick Cafe in Montgomery, AL. Thanks to these traditions, Berdeaux’s offers unique flavors that are bold and exciting. It all began with the Vintage Steak and Simply Creole BBQ sauce and as the cafe grew bigger, its executive chef Rufus White was part of the journey that led to an “Approved by Duncan Hines” award. White’s grandson, Jim Berdeaux, now owns Berdeaux’s Vintage Sauces and Seasonings (visit www.berdeauxsauces.com for more).

The recipes at the cafe were developed around 1945 and to this day, Berdeaux’s reintroduces the sauces of historic origin. With pure and simple ingredients, such as pure sugar, the sauces and seasonings are available in a variety of blends for every taste. From Hawaiian flavors to smokey heat, the sauces go beyond the grill and combine wonderfully with sandwiches or even hot dogs.

Berdeaux’s also focuses on health. There are no harmful preservatives, additives or high fructose corn syrup in the sauces and seasonings. The recipes stay as fresh and authentic as the day they were created!

“We duplicate the old recipes which have no food chemicals in the ingredients,” Berdeaux said.

Every item at Berdeaux’s is sold in a gourmet gift package and arrives in glass containers to ensure freshness, and more than 20 recipes are included with every order. The gourmet pack comes with a choice of sauce (1945 Recipe Vintage Steak, Simply Creole BBQ or Sweet Island) and two choices of seasonings that range from Bourbon Molasses and Honey Habanero to Applewood Chipotle. The Vintage Steak Sauce was voted #1 in the USA at the Christmas Expo in Knoxville, Tennessee.

If the pantry needs to be stocked up, try the gourmet combination pack that comes with three sauces and two seasonings!

You’ll also get a free recipe book included with all orders from Berdeaux’s Vintage Sauces & Seasonings!

When it’s time to pull out the grill, Berdeaux’s dry seasonings and rubs will take any meat to the next level. Choose from five custom blended BBQ seasonings like the Southern Surprise, with a taste of honey crystals and smoked mesquite salt, or Cajun’s Revenge, which calls upon the cuisine of the New Orleans French Quarter. And for gourmet hot wings, combine Cajun’s Revenge with Honey Habanero.

One customer compared Berdeaux’s steak sauce to A-1 and immediately decided “A-1 tasted like you were sucking on a rusty pipe.”

“I cannot believe all of this taste is in a gourmet steak sauce, plus a gentle kick,” the customer said.

With Berdeaux’s Vintage Sauces and Seasonings, your recipes will never disappoint!

Coutts Specialty Foods Makes All-Natural Foods The Old-Fashioned Way

by Leave a Comment

Right now, we are wishing everything was made as naturally and as well as the products from Coutts Specialty Foods.

They have been in the business for 79 years, when Alison Coutts’ grandpa made preserves on his mother’s stove. It was made just like things used to be made in 1938 — in the kitchen, naturally, from recipes collected from family and friends, with fresh ingredients, and lots of homemade flavors.

As a result, these products are 100 percent natural and kosher certified without any preservatives or artificial ingredients. Not only that, but they are also produced in a gluten-free and nut-free facility. So, if you thought you couldn’t enjoy jams, jellies, applesauce, marmalades, relishes, and sauces, we found a way that you can!

Jams

Let’s start with arguably their most-bought product: jams. They have 15 different varieties, from blackberry jam to damson plum jam, to strawberry jam.  Their blackberry jam is made up of only four ingredients: pure cane sugar, blackberries, fruit pectin, and citric acid. They are perfect for toast, baked goods, thumbprint cookies, sandwiches, or even heated up and used as a sauce on ice cream. Yum!

Jellies

They have 10 jellies, including one we just have to spotlight: the apple and cranberry jelly. This one has a blend you don’t often see in a jelly: fresh apple cider and cranberry juice. Its unexpected flavor makes this one a classic, old-timey favorite.

Other delicious flavors include cinnamon crab apple jelly, McIntosh apple cider jelly, mint jelly (aka “The Green Jelly”), and the classic strawberry jelly.

Relishes

Not to be outdone by the jellies and jams are the relishes. They offer five different kinds of relishes: corn, cranberry orange, hot red pepper, old fashioned piccalilli, and sweet red pepper. They are so good you will probably use them as condiments, but you could also eat them right out of the jar.

Sauces & More

Turning to the sauces, you’ll find apple butter cranberry sauce, McIntosh applesauce, and applesauce with no sugar added (which has only three ingredients: apples, water to process, and vitamin C).

Finishing out the mouth-watering offerings include natural mincemeat, made from a century old recipe and perfect for a pie or a hermit cookie.

This business is family-run and operated in New England, where, even after almost eight decades, they are still charming the palates of hungry New Englanders.

For natural, delicious foods that have stood the test of time, try Coutts Specialty Foods!
