Badia Ground Pepper 16 oz

Badia ground black pepper in the 16 oz size — the format Cuban-American home cooks reach for when the small grocery-store shaker runs out by Thanksgiving and never quite recovers.

Finely ground, dark, and aromatic, this is the everyday pepper that goes into the adobo rub before the pork hits the oven, into the picadillo as the ground beef browns, and onto the eggs at breakfast without anyone thinking twice about it. The 16 oz container refills the kitchen shaker for months.

Common Uses: seasoning lechón and pernil before roasting, building adobo and dry rubs, finishing picadillo and ropa vieja, peppering bistec de palomilla, eggs, soups, and arroz con pollo.

Pantry Role: base seasoning, pantry staple.

Common In: Cuban, Caribbean, and pan-Latin home kitchens — and in nearly every Cuban-American household nationwide where Badia is the default spice brand.

Cultural Context: Badia is the Miami-based, Cuban-founded spice company that became the house brand of the diaspora pantry. For families that grew up watching abuela season meat by feel from a Badia container, no other label tastes like home — even when the spice itself is something as ordinary as black pepper.

Pairs With: Badia comino, Badia sazón tropical, garlic, oregano, bay leaf, naranja agria, and kosher salt.

Ships nationwide to kitchens that go through pepper faster than the supermarket shaker can keep up.
