Hello All!
First time poster and my first time working with summer sausage. I recently put together a batch of elk summer sausage. Unfortunately, I did not read the directions as carefully as I thought. As per the directions I was to mix the meat with the seasoning and the cure and let set at least 12 hours. I did not do this but stuffed and smoked immediately after mixing. Is this meat safe to eat if all other directions were followed? TIA for any info...I hope I do not need to throw out his batch as elk meat is hard to come by in my neck of the woods.
