I don't know, mrad. I doubt it. #1 cure is something you don't see on shelves. You can probably get it in a few days from the internet if you can wait.
Yes you can but,
TQ uses a different amount then #1.
TQ also has salt in it, so your recipe that has salt will have to be changed.
TQ also has sugar in it.
So it's not a direct swap.

Substitute? No. Cure with TQ following the directions, yes. Bearcaver is the resident TQ Guru. Give his Step by Steps a look see or send a PM...JJ
