Better steak starts before it hits the heat.
Kalmes Famous Steak Seasoning & Tenderizer gives you bold, savory flavor and a built-in papain tenderizer in one easy step. It is the restaurant-proven family recipe behind great steaks at Kalmes Restaurant in St. Donatus, Iowa.
Season and tenderize in one step
Skip the separate marinade and complicated spice lineup. Sprinkle Kalmes evenly on both sides, let it work for 15–30 minutes, then grill, sear, broil, or air fry your steak as usual. For especially tough cuts, season and refrigerate longer.
Made for every cut
- Ribeye and strip: Add savory restaurant-style flavor without covering up the beef.
- Sirloin and flank: Let the built-in tenderizer help improve tougher cuts.
- Burgers: Mix in or season the outside before cooking.
- Roasts and steak bites: Get even seasoning with one dependable blend.
