Spice 101
This blend is a symphony of Chipotle, Cumin, Garlic, Smoked Paprika, Urfa Biber, Guajillo, Pasilla Oaxaca, Paprika, Thyme, Marjoram, and both Mexican and Turkish Oregano. Remarkably, it remains salt-free. The medium heat level is perfectly balanced with rich, smoky undertones, making it versatile for a variety of dishes.
Chorizo, the inspiration for our Chorizo Bomb, is originally from Spain, where it is seasoned with native spices, but has spread throughout Latin America as well. Mexican chorizo, for example, is known for its distinctive red color from local chiles and spices, contrasting with its Spanish counterpart, which often contains smoked paprika. Our blend offers a unique take that incorporates spices like the Pasilla Oaxaca from southern Mexico and the exotic Urfa biber from Turkey, showcasing how a single spice blend can reflect a mosaic of culinary histories.
Chorizo Bomb's robust and smoky flavors make it perfect for authentic Mexican chorizo, spicing up a North African merguez, or just giving a kick to our morning eggs. We love this blend for adding depth and heat.
Did you know that urfa biber, one of the key ingredients in Chorizo Bomb, is often referred to as the 'raisin chile' due to its sweet, smoky flavor with a hint of chocolate? This Turkish chile is sun-dried during the day and wrapped tightly at night to lock in its unique taste, which pairs wonderfully with the other global spices in this blend.

Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 35 reviews.
The flavor profile of the blend is amazing for ground beef! I used it as instructed (2 tsp for 1 lbs) with some added paprika for more vivid coloring and the meat had a very good kick on it.
I am yet to try it with other minced meats, but I can see how this would go well on turkey and even pork.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We love to hear that our chorizo seasoning helped you create the best vegan chorizo burgers. They sound delicious! 🍔🌱✨
Highly recommended! Osaka seasoned salt is one of my favorites. . Rubbed on salmon with some sesame oil . Team it up with a salad for a healthy quick and delish dinner
Versatile! Use pork, turkey or chicken and create fresh, delicious chorizo in minutes for a recipe. Or simply add the flavors to sweet potatoes, beans or other dishes as desired. Love that I can adjust the level of salt to my liking!
Store owner replied:
It's great as a sprinkle, delicious for tacos or a pot of beans, or using for meat or veggies on a grill. We're always finding new uses for it.
I absolutely love your chorizo bomb! I add it to breakfast sausage and then make an out of this world omelet! For dinner I put it in to a tortilla for a spicy little taco. Look forward to those days!
Store owner replied:
Both of those sound delicious! It just has so much flavor, so we find ourselves using it in so many dishes where we want that yummy Mexican chorizo flavor that we just can't find in pre-made chorizo.
One of my go-to spice blends! It's excellent in chili and on eggs.
Store owner replied:
Thank you! It's the closest I could get to the flavor of my first executive chef's Mexican-style chorizo. His is still the best chorizo I've had, and this blend helps me to make something like it.
Love this! I add it to meat as well as a soup I was making (sans meat) and it gave me the flavor and richness I’ve come to expect from eating chorizo like I used to get at our local specialty stores. You would never know there wasn’t chorizo meat in the dishes you’re making and it transforms meats you do have into a wondrously delicious meal. This is a winner for me?
Store owner replied:
That's such a great description of the flavor of Chorizo Bomb! I created it to mimic the flavor of my first Exec Chef's Mexican chorizo, which is still the best one I've had. This blend has such a great flavor, which just makes it even more versatile.
The flavor is so different from what you would expect, but in such a good way. The profile is deep and rich and completely new from most I've tried. I buy from this site all the time. This blend has my coworkers begging for more. It really is fantastic.
Store owner replied:
Wow, thank you so much for this wonderful review! Chorizo Bomb is definitely one of our favorites because it's just so versatile. I'm so glad you love it!
I have used this for chicken and for beef and im planning to add it to my next batxh of chili. I love the smokiness the depth of flavor it adds to any dish I've added it to. At some point I may actually use it to make my own chorizo.
Store owner replied:
Danielle, *yes!* Chorizo Bomb is all about that deep, smoky goodness, and it sounds like you’re putting it to amazing use. Chicken, beef, chili—each one getting that bold, rich kick? Love it. And making your own chorizo? That’s the kind of spice adventure we’re here for! Can’t wait to hear how it turns out! 🔥✨
First time ordered but certainly not the last time! So good!
The flavor in the spice is good but more gentle than what I hoped that it would be. I used it to make my chili and found my chili lacked its usual oomph.
Store owner replied:
Love that you gave it a go in chili! If you’re looking for more *oomph*, I’d definitely suggest trying our New Mexico Chili Blend next time—it’s my favorite for chili and brings that perfect depth of flavor! 🌶️✨
This is an absolute must have in our spice rack. We use it at least once a week. Two cans of beans with the juice, 1/4-1/2 stick of butter, alderwood smoked salt (another favorite!), and Chorizo Bomb to taste (~1.5 tbsp) - low simmer for 15-20 minutes and voila! Magic on rice, in burritos, on greens - so good! Thanks World Spice!
This was the first spice mix I got from the shop 8 years ago. I have been ordering it online ever since. It’s an excellent stand alone mix for fajitas, taco meat, even roasted vegetables. It’s delicious!
Store owner replied:

My adult son used this to add some zip to ground chorizo that we use for nachos & sandwiches. It did not disappoint! It adds just enough heat. Delicious!

This is the second year I've used chorizo bomb for venison sausage. We made 25 pounds. The taste is alive with flavor, but not to hot. I recommend it highly.
Store owner replied:
Wow, 25 pounds of venison sausage—that's impressive! 🦌🌭 Thanks for recommending it highly, and here's to many more delicious batches of sausage in your future! 🎉🔥
This is a family favorite at our house. From scrambled eggs to sheet pan dinner to black beans everything tastes better with a touch of chorizo bomb. It adds all the porky spicy flavor and umami to my dishes. We go through it fast!
Store owner replied:
It sounds like chorizo bomb has become a staple in your kitchen. Thanks for sharing your love for this versatile seasoning.
Pretty much the best spice blend on the planet We happened by World of Spice on a visit to Seattle about 11 years ago, sniffed this, and knew it had to come home. I've been ordering it every year since. Amazing rich smoky flavor for grilling, chili, pretty much anything with beans.
Highly recommended! Love this spice, I have been purchasing this spice for several years now. Love the flavor it gives to my chili, chori pollo, and nacho cheese! Great blend
Simply amazing My wife is a vegetarian so to use the spice to make her food feel “meaty” is a must. My whole family loves the bold authentic chorizo flavor
Since 1995 we've sourced and blended the finest flavors we can find. Nearly all of our spices are available whole or ground, and we grind in small batches shortly before shipping.
