Going to get things together for 5 lbs of Droewors this week.

This uses lean beef and lamb (no pork) and will hang for 6-7 days to dry.

Some of the main ingredients. 1/2 Tbs each.

I mixed the dry into the meat first then the wet.

Also i mixed this by hand. Its hot and i didnt want to over work the meat and render out any fat.
