This post may contain affiliate links. Please see our disclosure policy for details.

Our Low FODMAP Steak Seasoning is a classic combination of kosher salt, black pepper, and firmly packed brown sugar, along with extra flavor from low FODMAP garlic and onion powder, paprika, cumin, and oregano.

 If you’re in need of an all-purpose, go-to seasoning for your next ribeye, this is a great low FODMAP option, but truth be told, we have used this in hamburger, with lamb, chicken and other meats – and try on tuna or swordfish steaks, as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Low FODMAP Garlic & Onion Powders?

Conventional garlic and onion powders are made from dried and granulated, or powdered, garlic cloves or onion and are high FODMAP foods. There are a couple of low FODMAP garlic and onion powders on the market: FreeFod Garlic and Onion Replacers and Fodmazing Garlic or Onion Substitute Replacer. The FreeFod products have been lab tested and is certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly. Both brands contain the same ingredients – maltodextrin and natural garlic or onion flavor. We find them to be excellent additions to your herb and spice collection. Use them as you would conventional garlic or onion powders.

Is Steak Low FODMAP?

All pure proteins contain no FODMAPs. This means that hunk of steak, any beef or pork, even wild game, any fish, shellfish, chicken, duck, turkey, etc. are no FODMAP, so you just have to take care with how you prepare them. Ditto with pure fats. All oils are no FODMAP. FODMAPs are carbohydrates and you can learn more in our article, What Are FODMAPs?

FODMAP Information

All recipes are based upon Monash University & FODMAP Friendly science at time of initial 

  • Herbs: Many fresh and dried herbs have been lab tested by both Monash University and FODMAP Friendly and are easily looked up in the apps, which we strongly suggest that you have. The additional good news is that if you are interested in an herb that has not been lab tested, you can look at the nutritional panel and assess its FODMAP load for yourself. If the “Sugars” and/or “Carbs” are 1 g or less per serving, then the item would be a good bet to try.
  • Low FODMAP Garlic Powder: Conventional garlic powder is made from dried and granulated, or powdered, garlic cloves and is considered high FODMAP. There are a couple of low FODMAP garlic powders on the market: FreeFod Garlic Replacer and Fodmazing Garlic Substitute Replacer. The FreeFod has been lab tested and is certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly. Both brands contain the same ingredients – maltodextrin and natural garlic flavor. We find them to be excellent additions to your herb and spice collection. Use them as you would conventional garlic powder.
  • Low FODMAP Onion Powder: Conventional onion powder is made from dried and granulated, or powdered, onion and is considered high FODMAP. There are a couple of low FODMAP onion powders on the market: FreeFod Onion Replacer and Fodmazing Onion Substitute Replacer. The FreeFod has been lab tested and is certified low FODMAP by FODMAP Friendly. Both brands contain the same ingredients.
  • Paprika: Monash University has lab tested paprika and it is low FODMAP in 1 teaspoon (2g) portion. Smoked paprika is low FODMAP as well.
  • Sugar: Monash University and FODMAP Friendly have both lab tested white, granulated sugar. Monash states that a Green Light low FODMAP serving size of white sugar is ¼ cup (50 g). FODMAP Friendly simply states that they have tested 1 tablespoon and that it is low FODMAP. Regular granulated white sugar is sucrose, which is a disaccharide made up of equal parts glucose and fructose. Sucrose is broken down and absorbed efficiently in the small intestine. 

Please always refer to the Monash University & FODMAP Friendly smartphone apps for the most up-to-date lab tested information. Foods will be retested from time to time; in the case of raw ingredients, such as fruits and vegetables, results may vary. All lab tested results are valid and represent a snapshot in time. As always, your tolerance is what counts; please eat accordingly. The ultimate goal of the low FODMAP diet is to eat as broadly as possible, without triggering symptoms, for the healthiest microbiome.
