Hi mountain sausage kit

[ddgrass]

The kit came with seasoning and cure pouches for 15 lbs of meat. I messed something up and ended up with 16 lbs of meat. My question is I am obviously a little short on cure. How big a problem is this? If it is a big problem can it be fixed? Thanks for the help, I hope I haven't ruined my first try at making sausage before I even get it in the smoker!

Not a problem. Should try to aim for recommended portions, but again, not a problem.

It is only a little under let the mix sit for three or 4 days,rotate the mix at least once a day.The cure should do it.Next time do like a carpenter Measure twice cut once be safe.

Thank you so much for reply! Excited to enter the world of smoking meats. Got some pheasants I might try tomorrow!

Yeah I feel kind of dumb. With all that goes into this, I figured reading a scale would be the least of my problems.
