Thanks! I did back down the salt to 6 oz., but kept the overall mix rate. Might even back the salt down a bit more. Also going to add red pepper flakes to some for a little heat.You can back the salt down to 6 oz. But for simplicity sake then add it to 2 oz black pepper and 1 oz of ground sage. Use that mixture at 1/2 oz per lb of meat... or as SmokinEdge stated use 2 oz mix for your 4 lbs meat.
