    Sausage cure

    I just wanted to get everyone's opinion on this. I have read several articles and such on different types of sausages and methods of making fresh or smoked sausage. I'm a getting this correct? 1. Fresh sausage - requires no cure but must be cooked fully within 4 hours. 2. Fresh sausage (hot...

    Bacon

    Right on. So those are options for smoke flavor only? Kind of like you buy in stores but obviously superior in flav. I think I like this option too but I will try both. Thanks for your time!

    Thanks Martin. That's kind of what I was thinking. I guess I can try it both ways and see how I like it. Do you care to share a recipe and procedure for your cold smoked version? Thanks again!

    Beef for snack sticks

    Hey everyone. When I go to the meat market to get my beef to make snack sticks, which cut am I looking for? I read to go for lean like a 90/10(i want to grind my own). For the pork I'm guessing a pork butt picnic or Boston will do. The final mix will be somewhere around 70/30 ratio...

    Where to buy TQ

    I have read somewhere the cure time for meat is1 day /.25" from center out. Is this accurate? Also the CB recipe calls for a curing time of about 13 days with TQ. Would it be the same timeframe if I use cure #1?

    Where to buy TQ

    ok thanks everyone.  I will check my local meat markets and see what I can find.  Do they usually sell Cure#1 also or is this something you must purchase online?  Also as far as substituting Cure#1 for TQ, my recipe for making CB is calling for the typical 1 tbs TQ/pound so I guess I can just...
