Slap Ya Mama Seasoning Recipe

If you want that classic Louisiana kick, this Slap Ya Mama seasoning blend is the way to go!
The key is balancing the heat with just enough garlic and salt so the spice doesn’t overpower everything it touches.
I mix mine with smoked paprika for an extra layer of richness that makes a huge difference in the final dish.
Cayenne brings the heat, but black pepper and white pepper together create a sharper, more rounded burn that lingers just the right amount.
The best part? This seasoning isn’t just for Cajun dishes—I shake it onto roasted potatoes, grilled chicken, and even popcorn for an extra punch of flavor!
