We all love eating homemade sausage and jerky. Because traditions, products and ingredients evolve over time, it is advisable to be discerning about where we get our sausage and jerky-making information. 

Is it a family favourite recipe from many years ago? Maybe some of the ingredients, like the cures or binders  needed, have changed to newer and better formulations. Newer equipment, like better insulated smokers with digital components may change the way you do things.

Tastes and trends change over time. Maybe you’re looking for something more adventurous or worldly and you found a recipe on the internet. Procedures and ingredients should be questioned and referenced against a reputable source.

What we know for sure is that creating and preparing food for your family is a big deal. Many hours and a whole lotta effort go into every creation. It’s worth the extra time to make sure that you know your information is coming from a truly qualified source. Attached is a link from just that, a qualified source on Quick Facts on Processed Meat Products.
