Blove's Smackalicious Sauce Seasoning Mix (Spicy)

This was stated to arrive on the 23rd, arrived ahead of time to my glee on the 19th. I ordered on the 16th of April. Now to the good part, the product! I love spicy and this was hella spicy but not overwhelmingly spicy. I added 3 sticks of butter cause it was just me and my sister testing it and I didn’t want to waste ingredients in case I didn’t like it, I also didn’t add the pickled ginger because I couldn’t find it to save my life, nor did I add the vinaigrette. I love onions and peppers so I added a shitton of those, I’ll add even more next time cause it was just that good. But nonetheless we both loved it, I’m not a seafood person, so I had grilled Turkey sausage, corn on the cob, steamed broccoli, baby red and gold potatoes, and two hard boiled eggs even though I loathe eggs I wanted to try. And they weren’t bad but… they were still eggs lol. My sister had colossal shrimp and is now nagging me on when I’ll make more. I’ll definitely be ordering this in the near future.

Before I say anything I must say I love Blove and her channel. I was a vegetarian for almost 5 years and started watching her boils and within a month or so I started eating seafood again cause she made it look soooo good! I was beyond excited for her sauce and even the process of trying it and sharing that moment with people I love was amazing. Only thing was, the sauce wasn’t for me. It wasn’t nasty, it just wasn’t for my pallet. I’m more of a simple butter and garlic sauce type of girl. But that sauce on the corn... BOMB! My family was saying how they would prefer the sauce as a stew or with some meat. It’s more savory and for me, not a traditional seafood sauce. But I love how you can change and tweak the recipe as Blove says :) and yes it’s spicy lol. Also, I think the price isn’t expensive. It’s alot of seasoning and you don’t have to use the whole pack. I used all of mine but I definitely could have saved a lot of it. I recommend it for the over all experience and possibility of you loving it!

I was one of the lucky “few” that managed to get my hands on this sauce mix. I believe that I spent over $300 for a 10lb box of crabs, 6 lobster tails, size 13-15 shrimp, mussels, potatoes, eggs, kielbasa sausage and cucumbers....I’m sure I’m missing something there. I wanted this boil to be as close as a bloveslife video as I possibly could lol. I made sure to prepare the butter first to give it some time before eating with seafood. I added just about everything that was recommended on the bag, so I added the pickled ginger, half a can of coke, and chicken broth. The sauce was a tad bit too thick when it was done, but it could’ve been my fault due to it simmering for a bit..so I added an additional of 2 sticks of unsalted sweet cream butter to the 6 sticks that was already in there. The sauce initially is delicious, but when I came in for a second helping the next day, the flavors intertwined with one another soooo well and I’m definitely looking forward for future uses of this butter with better flavor development. This fed 3 “not skinny” people VERY well, and I still have left over butter that is not currently in the freezer. I want to try making it myself because I still hear that the original version is better though...it’s just hard to believe HOW much better it can be compared to this packet! And y’all. The lemon is the truth. And the boiled eggs was a surprisingly great combination with the sauce!

Siii

I was going to make this sauce with a boil for my inlaws but i ran short on time and we just picked up dinner. I attempted to make it the next day for myself but costco was out of king crab which has never happened to me before. Today i was not letting the universe stop me from diving in on this infamous sauce so i broke out the green lips and went for it. The whole thing was awful from beginning to end. When I opened the bag my wife and I instantly started coughing and sneezing. There was an overwhelming smell of what reminded me of Italian seasoning. Following the instructions exactly as written on the bag i ended up with paste so i had to add more liquid. Right away i could tell it was too sweet, too thick and lots of thyme which i hate the texture of. The taste was surprisingly blan. For it to have soooo Many seasonings in it i was shocked. It was also extremely sweet. It has a nice mild spice but not at all what i expected. A for effort and A for hustle but im sooo glad i only ate this with $15 worth of muscles. I would have been so angry wasting my crab with this sauce.
