Add some white vinegar to get the crumbly texture that Mexican Chorizo is famous for.
Salt builds overall flavor intensity and helps define the seasoning's complex blend of spices, garlic, and paprika while keeping the profile balanced.
Dextrose adds a mild sweetness that softens sharper spice notes and helps create a smoother, more cohesive flavor experience.
Spices including cumin and mustard seed form the heart of the blend, delivering earthy warmth, subtle nuttiness, and the distinctive character associated with traditional Mexican-style chorizo.
Paprika contributes rich color development along with mild sweetness and depth, helping create the seasoning's signature appearance and flavor foundation.
Sugar rounds out the profile by balancing the spices and supporting a fuller, more approachable flavor arc from beginning to end.
Garlic powder provides a bold aromatic backbone that enhances the richness of the spice blend and adds savory depth throughout the bite.
Natural spice extractives including paprika reinforce the aroma and flavor impact of the seasoning, helping deliver a more vibrant and consistent chorizo experience.
Citric acid contributes a bright tangy note that lifts the rich spice profile and adds the lively finish commonly associated with Mexican-style chorizo.

What is Chorizo?
There are two main types of Chorizo, Mexican or Spanish. Both are made from ground pork and can be sweet or spicy, the Spanish version is usually dry-cured where the Mexican is usually either fresh. Chorizo can be made from leaner portions of pork all the way to 50/50 fat to lean ratio. The seasonings will normally give you a finished product that is reddish in color. Our suggestion would be a Mexican style and made from Untrimmed Pork Butts. An important addition to the Mexican Chorizo is vinegar, you should aim for a 50-grain vinegar (5% acidity).
