A basic cure that is used to cure all meats that require cooking, smoking, and canning. This would include jerky, poultry, fish, hams, bacon, luncheon meats, corned beef, patés, and many other products.
Use when smoking or processing meat, sausage, fish or jerky at low temperatures. It's usually dyed pink so that it won't be mistaken for ordinary salt. It consists of 93.75% table salt and 6.25% sodium nitrite
Tip - Use 1 oz. per 25 lb. of meat. For smaller batches use 1 LEVEL TEASPOON per 5 lb. of meat. When adding cure #1 as an ingredient for brines follow a recipe.
