Share
If you’ve ever grilled chicken and thought, “This needs something more,” then you know what I mean. The cooking is perfect, and the color is just right, but the taste isn’t quite what you expected. Weber Garlic Parmesan Seasoning (6.6 oz.) does just that, and it is a must-try that will make you wonder how you ever cooked without it!
At Treatspree, we receive quite a few inquiries from customers asking us which seasoning truly “makes the cut.” Weber's Garlic Parmesan blend is one of those items that are always in the cart—over and over. There's actually a reason for this.|
So what is Weber Garlic Parmesan Seasoning?
Their seasoning line is an extension of Weber's 40-year-long grilling experience. Combining the savory roasted garlic with the rich, nutty flavor of Parmesan cheese, the dry rub and seasoning blend also includes herbs and spices that are wonderful when exposed to heat.
But it's not only for grilling. This is a versatile multi-purpose spice that can be used in the oven, on a skillet on the stove, or as a garnish over roasted vegetables and pasta.
The 6.6 oz. The jar is just the right size—large enough for all-season grilling and small enough to keep it fresh.
Why Garlic Parmesan Works So Well on the Grill
There’s a reason garlic and Parmesan have always been paired in kitchens for centuries. Garlic adds a nice depth of flavor that fades into a nice caramelized taste. Parmesan adds a savory richness, often described as umami, which enhances flavor and makes dishes taste more satisfying.
Place this combination on a hot grill and watch the magic happen. You get caramelization of the sugars, a light crust from the Parmesan, and a bloom of herbs from the blend. The outcome is a complex, satisfying, and addictive flavor.
Weber is well aware that this formula is successful, and they've taken that concept and distilled it down to just the basics in the Weber Garlic Parmesan Seasoning (6.6 oz.).
What Can You Use It On?
This is where a lot of people are pleasantly surprised. Weber Garlic Parmesan Seasoning isn't a one-trick product. Here's how people actually use it:
- Chicken: This is where it absolutely shines. Rub it on chicken thighs or breasts before grilling, and you'll get a beautifully seasoned, slightly crusted exterior with juicy meat inside. Bone-in cuts especially benefit from the bold flavor profile.
- Pork chops: Garlic and pork are a classic combination. A generous coating of this seasoning on thick pork chops before a cast-iron sear or grill session is genuinely impressive.
- Shrimp: Toss shrimp in a little olive oil, coat with the seasoning, and grill on skewers. It takes under 10 minutes and tastes like something from a restaurant.
- Vegetables: Zucchini, asparagus, mushrooms, bell peppers — all of them are better with a shake of this. Roast them in the oven at 400°F, and they come out caramelized and deeply savory.
- Potatoes: Whether you're doing wedges, a foil pack on the grill, or oven-roasted cubes, garlic Parmesan and potato is a combination that never gets old.
- Pasta and dips: Sprinkle a bit over buttered pasta or mix it into cream cheese for a quick dip. The seasoning is versatile enough to go beyond the grill entirely.
How to Get the Most Out of This Seasoning
A few things that make a real difference when using Weber Garlic Parmesan Seasoning (6.6 oz.):
- Apply it early: For proteins like chicken or pork, apply the seasoning at least 15–30 minutes before cooking. This gives the salt in the blend time to start drawing moisture to the surface, which improves the crust when heat hits it.
- Use a light hand with oil first: A thin coat of olive oil or avocado oil helps the seasoning stick and also helps transfer heat more evenly. You don't need much — just enough to coat.
- Don't shake it over an open flame: This sounds obvious, but it's worth saying. Sprinkle onto the food, not the fire.
- Layer it: For a deeper flavor on thick cuts of meat, apply some before cooking and add a light sprinkle right after pulling it off the heat. The fresh seasoning on top adds a pop of flavor that's noticeably different from what bakes into the surface.
What Makes Weber Different From Generic Seasonings?
You're not the only one who's picked up a random garlic seasoning from the supermarket and found it to be disappointing. Many of those combinations are too salty and not flavorful enough. Their seasoning blends have been developed over the years, and they have been designed for use in grilling, not for use in jars.
Weber Garlic Parmesan Seasoning (6.6 oz.) is balanced. The garlic is tasty but not pungent. The Parmesan has a nice body to it that doesn't make it taste overly cheesy. The other herbs (makes you think of Italian seasoning) complete the mix.
It enhances the food rather than overpowering it.
