About Stella Mae's - Alaskan Seafood Boils

How it Started

From the Barracks to the Boil

Stella Mae’s was born from the grit of military life, the joy of home cooking, and the soul of a six-sibling kitchen. Founder Keith Jenkins grew up learning how to feed a crowd, stretch a dollar, and bring people together with food that means something.

After years in the Army, Keith returned to his roots—this time with a mission: bring a piece of that soul to the world. He started with one bold blend, Spice Bomb, and a big dream: to make the Alaskan seafood boil the official state dish. And honestly? He’s not far off.

Stella Mae’s isn’t just seasoning. It’s storytelling. It's Culture.

It’s that moment someone's eyes light up after their first bite.

Because flavor should hit like a memory - and leave you wanting more.

About The Creator

Meet Keith Jenkins

Keith Jenkins grew up as the oldest of six in a lively household where food brought everyone to the table—and no one left hungry. He learned early how to stretch meals, feed a crowd, and season every dish with love and intention.

Those same skills followed him into the Army, where cooking became a way to connect, comfort, and care for his fellow soldiers.

After his service, Keith returned home with a bigger mission:

To share that connection with the world.

Stella Mae’s is named for the powerful women in his life and the family table that raised him. Every blend tells a story—of resilience, legacy, and bold-ass flavor you’ll never forget.
