Scorpion Spice Mix

An earthy spice blend with authentic sting
By
We love a good spice blend, especially when it's a secret ingredient used in a hot Mexican restaurant like Foxwoods Casino's Scorpion Bar. We had to do a little bit of prodding to get the ingredients for this, and we're glad we prodded. With two varieties of paprika, fennel seed, brown sugar and ancho chile powder, this mix can work wonders as a meat rub or in sauces. Scorpion Bar uses this spice mix in their housemade guacamole and salsa.
