Heat 2 tablespoons neutral oil and 3 popcorn kernels in a large lidded pot over medium-high heat. When they pop, add 1\/2 cup kernels, cover and shake often, keeping the lid slightly ajar to vent steam. Take the pot off the heat when the pops slow to 2-3 seconds apart, about 3-4 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTip the popcorn into a large bowl, leaving unpopped kernels behind. Season off the heat; the sugar in this blend browns quickly in a hot pan. Drizzle 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter over the popcorn while tossing. Sprinkle on 1 1\/2 teaspoons seasoning and toss, then add another 1 1\/2 teaspoons (1 tablespoon in all) and toss again. Taste, adjust a pinch at a time and serve warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.25rem;line-height:1.35;margin:1.4em 0 0.5em;\"\u003eIngredients \u0026amp; allergens\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredient overview:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brown sugar powder, smoked paprika, maltodextrin, fine popcorn salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, tomato powder, chile powder, vinegar powder, ground black pepper, ground yellow mustard, smoke flavor powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContains mustard.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck the physical package for the complete current ingredient and allergen statement, including subingredients of compound powders.
