I went ahead and ordered a few sausage mixes from OwensBBQ.com. I noticed that they are all "fresh sausage mixes". I ordered the Jalapeno Brat mix for some duck brats, Hot pork sausage mix for my venison breakfast sausage, and I also order the Italian Sausage mix that i was going to make into breakfast sausage. So, I have made lots of sausage in the past, but the mixes that I got always used had the pink cure packets with them. My question is, since these mixes are "fresh sausage mixes" and I am wanting to smoke all my sausage, how much of the pink cure do I need to buy for 100 pounds of sausages?
Also, has anyone tried these mixes? any reviews?
