BALTIMORE — There's a new Old Bay-flavored product in town, and it's a partnership with one of Baltimore's best-known restaurants.

Jimmy's Famous Seafood chef and co-owner Tony Minadakis helped create two Old Bay butter spreads.

One is honey-flavored, and one is garlic. Both butters are made with Old Bay and real butter, and can be used "to easily spread, pour, and dip their bread, seafood, vegetables, and more."

They're now available at local retailers including ShopRite, Grauls, Harvest Fare, Eddie's, Geresbecks, Food Depot, and Green Valley. There are plans to expand the butters to larger markets soon.

Minadakis said in a press release:

Our goal, which we executed, is to keep the butters as natural as possible - real butter, extra virgin olive oil, and seasonings without any added preservatives, or artificial sweeteners. We always take a restaurant chef’s approach to product development to guarantee that what our guests enjoy at Jimmy’s Famous Seafood is the same quality that they purchase in a store or online, and we know that our guests really enjoy any and everything OLD BAY.
