For consistently flavorful sausage use the recommended number of pounds of meat this package is intended to produce.

To make the entire 5 lb. package at one time: Dissolve entire seasoning and cure packets into 5 ounces of water for 5 pounds of meat.

To make the entire 25 lb. package at one time: Dissolve entire seasoning and cure packets into 25 ounces of water for 25 pounds of meat.

To make smaller batches: Use 2 Tbsp & 2 tsp teaspoons of seasoning, a scant 1/4 teaspoon of cure (1.1g), and 1 ounce of water for each pound of meat used.

Directions:

• Grind a mixture containing at least 20% pork or pork fat.
• Dissolve seasoning and cure in water. Mix thoroughly with meat until tacky.
• Stuff into 32-35mm natural hog or collagen casings.
• Twist casings to make 4-6" links and cook in preheated oven at 180° F, or smoker until internal temperature reaches 165° F.
• Links can be grilled, fried, or broiled. Refrigerate or freeze finished product.

Keep cure out of reach of children. Do not use more cure than recommended.

A Note About Cure: Cure should be used to control botulism as well as add color and flavor to your smoked or cooked sausage.
