Does anyone put this on the night before or right before cooking?

Some of our customers do exactly that (apply the night before) and others have said that it dulls the spices.

How long will the 3 lb last?

I’ve done 4 briskets 17-20 pounds and probably 10 pounds of steaks with my regular size bottle and there’s about a 1/4 left. So 3 pounds should last a while.

I dry brine my steaks for 1-2 days before cooking and don’t need to add additional salt. Is it possible to order a salt free Carnivore Black?

That's a great question but I don't know. I can tell you from experience that it's not by any means over salty. You can always add a little, try it and see, if it's too salty try adding some at the beginning of your brine and holf off on other salted seasonings

Salt, pepper, garlic, onion, et al, make sense, because they add flavors. Why dust my steak with charcoal? Remove flavors? "Look" tastier?

My opinion on black is that it seals in the flavors of the steak and gives it a more intense flavor!

Not spicy and don’t let the black fool you… it’s very very very good!! 😊

This is a must have! The flavor is like none other and the color may be intimidating but it so flavorful with out being spicy at all. A little or a lot will do as to your liking. The ease of using -All you have to do is shake it out of the container as the lid has duel purposes. It’s a great value for the money. Don’t let the BLACK appearance discourage you from trying it. It is perfectly blended. Try and enjoy! 😊

Whole family loves it

We absolutely love this seasoning. We have used it for years. Finally decided to buy the giant jug because we go through it so fast. Of course, perfect for steaks. Also mix it into our hamburger meat for burgers. Crisps up nice for smash burgers. Not too salty. Just right.
