I’ll never forget the first time I had Good Seasons Italian Dressing…..It was a dark and stormy night 🙄….Back in the 80’s I had just been released from my first prison stint in Angola. [got busted stealing women’s underwear from K Mart] Well, I slowly made my way back to my hometown of Nederland, Texas.. where I eventually found a job refereeing cock fights.
I know this sounds like glamorous work, but it really ain’t all it’s cracked up to be.
Anyway, I was actually visiting my Dad and step mom one weekend and she served me a salad with a dressing I’d never seen or tasted before. It was Good Seasons Italian Dressing. I was immediately smitten, wow I thought, this is good stuff! I asked my step mom, Lois, what it was, and she first told me it was an old family recipe. Later, she told me the truth and showed me what it really was. Been buying and using it ever since.
Over the years I’ve tried many marinades, some good and some not so good. I’ve also tried lots of different seasonings and rubs, as I’m sure you all have as well. One thing I’ve done though is..I’ve always come back to my old standby marinade, Good Seasons, along with my favorite seasoning..Tony Chachere’s. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. [my old cell mate, Clark taught me that]
Anywho, I’ve used this combination of Good Seasons and Tony’s for probably 30 years now. You can use it for almost any cut of meat, chicken; whole or cut up, pork chops, steaks, pork loins…whatever. It just adds so much flavor and juiciness to whatever you’re using it on. One thing I also learned, balsamic vinegar is MUCH better to use in the dressing than regular white vinegar. What I usually do is just put the meat in a ziplock bag with lots of the dressing and several tablespoons of Tony’s. Most of that will come off when you take it out of the bag. Before placing the meat on the grill I’ll sprinkle more Tony’s on it, all over.
I know a lot of you might already use this stuff, but I’m sure there’s many who might not have. I just used this combo on a whole chicken I did on the Bronco, as some of you might have seen. Turned out as one of my best chickens ever. But don’t just take my word for it….
NOT A PAID ACTOR 🙄

"PJ's reputation was on the line today, and I would say he exceeded expectations. This dressing and seasoning mixture is indeed the bomb with chicken!. And the OK Joe's Bronco Pro just takes it to another level and then throws it over the edge."
The Kroger brand is just as good. I wasn’t about to pay $5.00 more for the real Good Seasons, I’m a cheap bastard sometimes.
