when you try it ,let me know what you think about it. i got it off some hunting board 2 or 3 years ago but never tried it[:D]
word of advise, if i remember right, that mortons tender quick salt was hard to find

Got all of the ingredients for it today. Meijer in Louisville has all kinds of the Morton Tender Quick Salt. I figured that I would have a hard time finding it, but didn't.

I've got 4 different recipies for summer sausage and jerkey that I got off here within the past few days. I got just the spices today and spent over $30! Dang mustard seeds were almost $3 for a little container!

It'll be a few days. I got it mixed up today, but you've got to let it sit. I also mixed up some bologna. It'll be ready to start cooking tomorrow. Should be pretty good. Had lots of garlic, onion, and cayenne in it!

The recipe that I had for the bologna didn't turn out worth a crap! It was edible, but nothing that your tongue would smack your brains loose for.

The summer sausage on the other hand (the recipe near the top of this thread) is GOOD! Instead of cooking at 175-200 degrees, I would back it off to 175 and leave it there. I took the stuff off at 1:30 this morning and took a roll into work. I mixed the stuff up just as it called for in the recipe. It was good, but could have been better. Add more pepper, some garlic powder, onion powder, and a little cayenne and it should be fit for a king!
