As a home cook, I know the challenges you’re facing. There’s so much wasted time, money, and counter space. And who knows whether anyone is going to eat it? Let's change that!

Get Papa J's Seasonings!

Papa J’s Seasonings were developed to help home cooks create fresh, flavorful meals in one step and without the prep.

Papa J’s Seasonings were developed over a lifetime in the home kitchen and 20 years of competition in the Kansas City BBQ Society. Jesse Waller—Papa J himself—loves combining fresh, small-batch spices to make the perfectly balanced seasonings that win over judges in one bite. Now he is sharing them with you so you can impress the ultimate judges of good flavor: your family and friends.
