I’ve made two recipes using the sauce and my family loves it. I will definitely be purchasing more sauce.

I made this recipe minus the chorizo, it was a hit. So easy! After chopping the vegetables it was done in 20 minutes. My family loved it so much, they had me make it again the next day with chicken and sausage. I love it, delicious!
Danielle C.
Well... marinated some cod and shrimp in some boil bomb, then battered and deep fried the taste was sensational!

Tampa Tradition Since 1920
As the legend goes Crab Chilau (Cangrejo Enchilado) was first introduced by Cuban immigrants who voyaged to Tampa to work the cigar factories in the Ybor City District, once known as the Cigar Capital of the World. During the 1920's Ybor City was a melting pot of ethnic fusion and culture as Cuban, Spanish, Italian and African American residents embraced the dish and put their own unique spin on it.
New Recipes
Chilau Cast Iron Smothered Salmon Steaks
Cast iron seared and smothered salmon steaks will make you question if you need any other source of protein. The flavor is simply incredible with onion, peppers and sauce over rice. It's super quick to prepare and only takes a couple ingredients. The perfect week night meal or even for special occasions.
Garlic Pepper Shrimp Scampi on the grill
Shrimp Scampi is a favorite for most seafood lovers. This dish on next level consists of plenty garlic, butter and our Chilau Garlic Pepper Seasoning. If that wasn't enough the subtle touch of smoke from the cast pot pan in a weber kettle took these shrimp over the top! You have to try it!
Roux based Seafood Gumbo with Dungeness Crab, Shrimp and Smoked Sausage
Our take on the roux based New Orleans style gumbo takes a little longer than our usual 30-minute recipes but you will be delighted at the flavor Chilau Sauce adds with the concentrated "Trinity" flavor in Chilau Gumbo! Add a little Boil Bomb for an additional POW of flavor!
24K Seafood Mac'n Cheese with Lobster, Shrimp, Scallops and Crab Meat
24K Mac'n Cheese (Seafood Mac'n Cheese) was an idea I had when thinking about the ultimate side item to bring for Thanksgiving dinner. Special occasions call for the special treatment with lobster, jumbo shrimp, scallops and lump crab meat. The addition of Chilau added the perfect amount of kick and bold flavor! It was a hit! Must try!
Deviled Crab Corn Bread Dressing with Chilau Sauce
One of my favorite foods during Thanksgiving and Family dinners is cornbread dressing (stuffing), usually enjoyed next to a juicy turkey or succulent collard greens. This twist on the Tampa Bay staple Deviled Crab ads a new twist to dressing that makes for the perfect side item to spice things by adding crab and kick to the party. Feel free to put your spin on it with choice of meats, veggies, and seafood. The pan will disappear fast so make sure you get your corner first! :)
Marinated Pan Fried Snapper with Citrus Glaze
Red snapper, in general, is highly celebrated in the Caribbean and this pan-fried approach lends itself well to large family dinners and celebrations. The citrus glaze is sweet and garlicky with a little heat that really brings out the flavor of the fish. Serve with rice, grits or straight up! Delicious!
Garlic Crab Boil with Dungeness Crab, Shrimp, Mussels and Clams (GUMBOIL)
When originally creating this recipe my goal was to show the Chilau Heads (cooking group) they could experience an a...
Surf & Turf BBQ with Baby-back ribs, Shrimp and a Sweet Tangy Mustard Sauce
I'm often asked is Chilau good with other meats besides seafood and my answer is always, "Yes!" Though Chilau was inspired by a seafood based recipe it has the essential flavor profile that is universal to amazing flavor. Onion, Garlic, Chile Peppers and spices like black pepper, cumin, mustard and celery are stables in many cooking styles. For this particular recipe I wanted to display how you can elevate your BBQ with Chilau Seasonings as well as create an amazing sweet and tangy honey mustard bbq sauce. I decided to go with the open faced sandwich approach but the mustard bbq sauce and seasonings can fuel your entire BBQ Festivities.
