    Effects of fruit juice on Cure #1?

    I was very interested in some way to incorporate SE into a dry cure bacon recipe when I stumbled onto this site and this conversation this evening. I took a look at that mix from Walton's referenced above and noticed "Sodium Bicarbonate (1% buffering agent)" in the ingredients. I wonder if...
