A device and method are provided for metered dispensing of granular seasoning material. The device comprises a reservoir including a dispensing outlet, a metered dispensing member having an axis and a metering chamber comprising a peripheral cavity in the metered dispensing member, the metered dispensing member mounted for axial linear movement relative to the reservoir through the dispensing outlet to and from a filling position, in which the metering chamber is in communication with the interior of the reservoir, and a dispensing position, in which the metering chamber is in communication with the exterior of the reservoir, to permit gravity dispensing of a metered quantity of material from the metering chamber. Preferably, an actuation assembly for movement of the dispensing member comprises biasing means. A diffuser may be connected to the exterior of the reservoir below the dispensing outlet for evenly distributing dispensed material onto a target area.
