It is very hard to find out all the ingredients that are in the package. I know for sure that they have to list them on the package if they are selling it. I would read what is on the package and then start off with adding the ingredients to a bowl to make your own.

This is about the only way to find out what is in the package. You can adjust the spices until you get what you like.

This was discontinued in 2016. I found a discussion on Facebook and it was recommended to use this recipe as an alternative:

www.mccormick.com/.../slow-cooker-country-chicken-stew

But with a little more digging, I found a link to the packet. It shows the ingredients. Looks like paprika, white pepper, turmeric, garlic, onion and some thickeners like potato starch and corn starch.

www.mccormick.com/.../bag-n-season-chicken

That site shows that it is available but I don't think it really is. Might be worth a try though.

Well - good news McCormick's Thick & Zesty Spaghetti Sauce Mix has not been discontinued and should be back on grocery store shelves soon. McCormick has been having problems getting some of their ingredients from suppliers due to the COVID-19 virus but state they will be making this again soon.

Usually it is best to check online to see when it is available again.
I hope no wishes to pay the price some sellers are asking right now:

Here are a couple of recipes that I have used in the past but everyone has different 'tastes' when it comes to spaghetti sauce.

I was using McCormick Spaghetti mix and could no longer find it in the store so my daughter got on line and ordered it for me. They sent a box of Lawry's instead of McCormick. My daughter called and inquired about it. They refunded the money and told us to keep the sauce.

I found out that McCormick has bought out Lawry's. The sauce is just as good as McCormick and may be even a little better and we love it. I will definitely be ordering more when we finish up this box of 12

Best Answer

If anyone has developed a copycat recipe I cannot find it.
There are plenty of pork chop recipes but most recommend using McCormick's which it appears has been discontinued but maybe not as it is not on their discontinued list and some Amazon sellers are selling these with an April delivery date.

www.amazon.com/.../ref=dp_prsubs_3?pd_rd_i=B07XNG2GP4... (Affiliate Link)
Some sellers on eBay have some for sale at about $16 - $20 for 3 packs. Sad..

McCormick's has been having problems acquiring ingredients for some of their other products so this may just be another one and it may be back on the market in a few weeks or so.

Recipes are scarce for just this way of cooking pork chops but it appears Kroger has a similar bag but may not be anything like McCormick's. I'm not sure you can even find this.
There is also a Sauer's similar but no idea of ingredients.
www.sauerbrands.com/.../

I did find this one recipe but never tried it:
www.cdkitchen.com/.../Pork-Loin-in-a-Bag90259.shtml
You may just have to find a seasoning mix/rub that you like and buy some of the oven bags and try creating a recipe that suits you and your family.

I feel sure other members will be along soon with lots of suggestions.

I have tried this recipe in the past and it comes the closest to the Beef Stroganoff seasoning from McCormick. it is a great recipe and simple to make. This one might work for you if you want to make it and try it. m.cookeatshare.com/.../homemade-ground-beef-helper-mix-299402

As for your Fajita mixes, I have used this mix for a very long time and it is delicious. This one is simple to make and you can store it in a bottle and use as much or as little as you like. You can try this one www.adishofdailylife.com/.../

Just keep in mind a lot of recipes like this are to your liking and taste. I find out that they are actually better than the real deal and you can spice them up a bit if you like them a bit more spicy.

McCormick Beef Stroganoff Mix and Lawry's Fajita mix have not been discontinued but there is a shortage of both of these spices according to McCormick. McCormick Beef Stroganoff Slow Cooker Mix has been discontinued.

Message from McCormick:
"We still make our Beef Stroganoff Seasoning Mix. We are temporarily out of stock on some of our products due to the heavy demand on our packaging supply. We are working hard to get these products back on shelves. ~ Erica
McCormick Spice
Manufacturer · September 17, 2020"

Lawry's Fajita mix can still be found online:
www.amazon.com/.../141-0273534-7158852?tag=thrif06-20 (Affiliate Link)
www.amazon.com/.../B00BFSPBUU (Affiliate Link)

There are some very good recipes for both mixes but most will need to be changed in some way to suit your own personal taste.
www.allrecipes.com/.../
www.bettycrocker.com/.../c17a904f-a8f6-48ae-bedb-5b301a8ea317

I have a friend who owns a small restaurant and since we are in Florida she has remained open (In some capacity) for most of this difficult time and she says it is difficult to find any of these mixes not only McCormick but all brands.

Everybody ask this question and wants a copycat recipe for McCormick's seasonings. Unfortunately there aren't any available. On the package they list the ingredients but they do not say how much they add of each sprice. I know a few people who have just made their own from the ingredients on the package. it is a trial and error but in the end you can come close to copying this seasoning mix.

I'm afraid that you will find very few true copy-cat recipes for any of McCormick's mixes.
It just so happens that my local Walmart (Florida) has a few packets of this particular item in stock but I'm sure they will not last very long (in store only - cannot be ordered) but you might try online at some of your local stores to see if they have any left.

You might want to try another mix and maybe check ingredients against McCormicks to see what may be different/missing.

They probably have this brand at your local stores.

Also, how long have you been looking for it? Sometimes a small store will have some left but be sure of course to check the expiration dates.

You are looking for a copycat recipe for McCormick Perfect Pinch vegetable seasoning - probably because this has been discontinued and is no longer available.

This is a list of ingredients from McCormick's website. For some reason, they had 2 sets of ingredients.

What are the ingredients in McCormick vegetable seasoning?
SEA SALT, ONION, BROWN SUGAR, SPICES (INCLUDING BLACK PEPPER), GARLIC, CORN MALTODEXTRIN, RED BELL PEPPER, MODIFIED CORN STARCH, SOYBEAN OIL, TOMATO, VINEGAR, ASCORBIC ACID, NATURAL FLAVOR, AND EXTRACTIVES OF TURMERIC.

Ingredients. Onion, Garlic, Spices (Including Black Pepper, Thyme, Basil), Red Bell Pepper, Tomato, Corn Maltodextrin, Modified Corn Starch, Sunflower Oil, Vinegar, Parsley, Citric Acid, Natural Flavor & Extractives of Turmeric.

Copycat for similar spice:
www.budget101.com/.../

This website has a lot of McCormick copycat recipes but I do not believe this one is listed:

Here are some recipes where people are providing their version of this spice:

www.themakeyourownzone.com/.../

You may find some sites showing this spice available but it will be out of stock.
You may see listings for other spices but probably not this one.

I believe you are asking about the seasoning mix and not the marinade. There does not appear to be a copy-cat recipe for this blend and since it is no longer being made it will continue to climb in price until all sites have sold out.

Step 1
The least expensive that I found was about $14 for 2 small containers plus $8 shipping! Some of the Sam's clubs may have it but if so, not for long. Amazon no longer has any for sale.

Step 2
You may have to check the ingredients on your container and experiment (start with a basic Brazilian seasoning recipe) and add small amounts of the other listed ingredients until you find a taste that suits you.

The only ingredients I found for McCormick's had several "out of the ordinary" spices.
Sea salt, spices (including black pepper, paprika, jalapeno pepper, parsley), garlic, onion, red and green pepper & natural flavor (?)
Maybe these are the ingredients on your container. Good luck and maybe you can post a "copycat" recipe sometime in the future.

What are the spices used in McCormick's brown gravy mix?

By Amber from FL

Answers

March 29, 20110 found this helpful
Best Answer

Hey Amber, if no one else is able to offer a better answer, look at the ingredients label on a package of McCormick's Brown Gravy mix to give yourself a clue. Also remember that in the USA ingredients are listed from highest amount (first listed ingredient) to lowest amount (last listed ingredient) on all labels and try to recreate accordingly.

Ignore most of the unpronounceable ingredients (they are usually additives that won't make the gravy any healthier) and experiment with other ingredients, spices, herbs, one at a time. This way you will be able to eliminate or keep that item on your next attempt at recreating a favorite brand name mix.

Some things to try in brown gravy mix (again, experiment with one per cooking session) assuming it is to make 4 -6 servings are:
2 T of Worcestershire sauce
2 t of Old Bay Seasoning
1 T Dijon style mustard
1 t of any dried spice or herb you would add to a beef soup or beef stew

If you are not into experimenting, try some popular recipe sites and type in an internet search for "Brown Gravy Mix Copy Cat Recipes McCormick's" (or a similar combination of words.) You just might find exactly what you are looking for! Good luck, gal!
