Doing some ribs this a.m using Oakridge Sweet Dominator. I love this stuff as well as all of Mikes offerings. Bought the 1lb pack 5 months ago and separated most of it into an old repurposed shaker. The rest I left in the original packaging sealing as best I could.
Come this morning when I'm about to season the ribs I taste each. Wow. What a difference in flavor. The better sealed batch was much, much more flavorful with the spices and herbs coming through much stronger. The shaker contents were dull tasting like something I could make. Not sure if this will transfer to the cooked product but very noticeable in the raw.
My advice. Store your herbs&spices as airtight as possible and in the proper conditions. Most of us say we know this but fewer practice it.
