Original South Boston Pickling Spice

Boston Spice combined 14 different herbs and spices to make " Southie - Corned Beef and Pickling Spice Blend." Never again will you use that spice packet that comes with packaged corned beef or that supermarket jar of pickling spices when you want to pickle your own vegetables. Boston Spice has seized the pickling day.

The St. Patrick's Day tradition of eating corned beef and cabbage is not a real Irish tradition. Irish-Americans transformed and reinterpreted a tradition from the Emerald Isle.

No one knows the origins of corned beef, but most believe it came to be when people started preserving meats through the process of salt-curing.

But, regardless of when it all started, you will believe that Boston Spice must have been ones to invent the use of pickling spices in the pot for the tastiest Corned Beef you have eaten. Okay, we did not invent it, but I think we perfected it.

Many of our customers have used Southie to make pastrami.
