Where do you get th cajun herb seaning mix

Unfortunately it is disconnected. You might want to substitute the Southwest Seasoning Mix...I'm not sure how well that would work.

This is going to be an unpopular answer, but you could probably use one of Emeril's seasonings.

Just a thought since we don't have it anymore!!

Cajun SeasoningIn the spice aisle, there are lots of different types of "cajun" seasonings. I love Tony Sacherys (name brand...don't know if I'm spelling it right). It's actually CAJUN, not just a brand trying to get in on the "brand" wagon!

Right now, I am using McCormick's Cajun seasoning, and it's pretty good. I can't get Tony's here

HTH...

Since I'm from New Orleans area (Slidell, actually) I thought I'd put my two cents in. I've made it before and it was a hit. I used Tony Chachere's. The first time I made it I inadvertantly used the whole container of Philly (8 oz). It was soooo good, that I've just continued to make it that way. I'm not sure how it tastes with 4oz, though. If you make it with real crabs, it's even better and spicy!!!!
