Steel City Salt Co

I can't remember the first time I bought products from Steel City Salt, but it goes back a good five years or more and I can't imagine my kitchen without them. I also frequently give them as gifts because I am so passionate about the difference these seasonings make in food, which is what inspires this review.Last year I sent a package as a gift and that friend has become a regular mail order customer. This year, for my sister-in-law's birthday, I recalled her saying how she has enjoyed several varieties at my house and hoped to get to the shop sometime when she was in town from Morgantown. So I sent her a box, and over the past few days she has been so enthusiastic I am getting constant reports on everything she is using the seasonings on. Dill Pickle salt on fries. Bagel on Grant seasoning (which is the best bagel seasoning you have ever tried, I promise you) on avocado toast, at my recommendation. She was trying them straight out of the jar the first evening she received them. They are honestly that good. I love the Black and Gold blend on corn or eggs, and during a time I was dropping a lot of weight a few years ago the Steeltown Garlic and Herb was my go-to, as it still is, when roasting trays of potatoes, veggies and tofu for meal prep. An unsung hero in the line is the relatively new Unsalted Shallot and Chive, which is a great addition to so many things and a nice option if you are trying to watch your salt intake. Customer service is super quick and helpful, if you are ordering online the orders arrive in a blink, but if you have a chance to stop out at the shop definitely do. Millvale is a great part of town and the shop is fun to browse.

During a recent long weekend trip to Pittsburgh, we came across Steel City Salt selling their product along a sidewalk in the strip district. The selection they had was pretty solid and we enjoyed trying some of the different options. We picked up a few to bring back to MI with us and have used them several times on our food. Definitely worth checking out.

The best and most unique salts. Sweet and savory! The staff is always so kind and open to you tasting whatever you'd like to! I got dill salt and put it on popcorn and it's to die for! I also got the watermelon sugar (for rimming cocktails!) and salted caramel sugar (for rimming espresso martinis). I'm excited to try more and add to my collection!

So many different spice options, not just salt! I came here to find some popcorn seasonings and they had a "Row House Cinema Roayale with Cheese Popcorn Sprinkle". Perfect! I also got a "Salted Caramel Sugar" which has organic cane sugar, sea salt and caramel. I bought a couple of other spices to include the "maple jalapeño blend" which has sea salt, Paul's Family Farms Maple, and jalapeño chili pepper. I love how they incorporate local ingredients in their products. Finally, I got the Peruvian Inca Blend, which I can't wait to try next time we make some Peruvian food!They also had merch and some other food items, like oils, vinegars, and other jarred items. It's a great little local shop.

Steel City Salt is a local treasure! I've enjoyed their salts in my own home as well as gifted them to out-of-towners who want a flavor (pun intended) of Pittsburgh. They have an amazingly wide variety of salt types that go with just about any dish. The salts come in very cute little labeled glass bottles. Gift boxes come with descriptions of each salt variety and recommended uses. Some of my favorites:- Mesquite: Great smoky flavor for any kind of meat- Black truffle: Truffle mushroom flavor for your carb-heavy dishes- Ghost pepper: You need just a hint of this to give any dish a big kick!- Lemon-lime: Got this one for my in-laws, who loved it on margaritasThis is just a fraction of what they have, so give their website a look for the full rundown!

You will never find a more enthusiastic group of shop owners, this is definitely a wonderful place to shop.If you are happy with your typical table salt, and you aren't open to exploring this in more depth, then don't even bother. But if you are looking to spice things up a little, get yourself down here.There's a lot more than just salt here. There are lots of different spices, plus salt slabs for cooking and much more. I found the staff very knowledgeable and helpful. Downright fun!It's a small shop, but lots to see. Don't miss out!

OMSalt I love this place.It's the only place I'll buy salt and other seasonings.Great selection and the products maintain a lengthy shelf life.These guys are experts when it comes to all things salty.

I've been to the outpost in the Strip as well as the storefront in Millvale. The owners are very friendly and helpful. The salts are so creative and overtaking our cupboard. The Hubs started with sriracha salt and got hooked with the smoked paprika. I started with getting fun gifts for friends and started trying different seasonal offerings, such as the dill pickle.If you're walking in the Strip on the weekends, you'll find their table out front of where Chicken Latino was. I encourage you to go to the Millvale shop as they have the full stock and also carry items from other local small businesses.Keep it salty!

My favorites are Steeltown Garlic and Herb and Pierogi Salt. Your wide selection makes it easy to select gifts for friends and family.Do you make any blends with white peppercorns?

I haven't been there, YET! I bought some at the airport and it is , hands down, the best seasoning on planet Earth! I'm having some shipped to Wyoming!
