The 9.6-ounce bottle lasted me through three cookouts, which is solid value for the price. Put a heavy dash on some thick patties and the whiskey note came through smoky and savory without being overpowering. My brother, who usually douses everything in ketchup, actually ate his burger plain.

Smoked a batch of burgers last weekend and this seasoning gave them that deep, almost caramelized whiskey bite without any fuss. The shaker top makes it easy to coat the patties evenly, and the bold flavor really held up against the grill smoke.

The 9.6-ounce bottle is plenty for a whole summer of grilling, and a couple of shakes on the patties gave them this rich, complex depth without being overpowering. Even my picky brother asked what was in the burgers, which tells you everything.
