Curing Salt HELP

[CanadianSmoker95]

Have a curring salt called "PickleCure Sure Cure" it says to use 312g plus 2kg of salt for 100kg of meat
if my math is right it would be 7.08g of cure plus 45.36g of salt for 5lbs of meat (2267.96g of meat)

i see that most curing salts are 1tsp for 5lbs of meat

1tsp of salt would equal to 6.30 grams

7.08grams is equal to 1 1/8th tsp

so do i use 1 tsp or 7.08grams

What is the nitrite percentage? From there we can do the math and get you going.

I tried googling for "Picklecure Sure Cure" and came up with nothing !

I DID find "sure cure" but NOT that specific product.

Give us a link to the product or.....personally I would not use it.

We can't calculate anything without knowing the percentage of nitrite in the cure you used.

you need to go back to the place you bought it and ask them what the percentages of sodium nitrite are in it? if its 6.25% then we can help you

i use 2.5g/kg of meat weight of cure #1 which contains 6.25% sodium nitrite the website is calling out 3.0 grams which i think is what Canadian allows for the 200ppm.

with you meat weight @ 5lb you would only need 5.65 gram of cure to meat the minimum here in the US or 6.78grams to meet the 200ppm in Canada i believe
