Hi all,  I made a high mountain summer sausage kit this weekend however I miscalculated the weight by about 3 pounds,  I added enough cure for 15lbs.  Do I need to worry?  I placed the stuffed sausage in the fridge for 20 hours and then smoked them in the smoker.  The smoker had a tough time getting the IT to temp.  It stuck at 125 for long time.  I finished them off in the oven instead.

do I need to worry about botulism

did you put in to much or to little of the cure

I put in enough for 15lbs however I had about 18lbs of meat.

I am not sure about this one. When you say it was stuck in the 125 range for a long time, how long of time?
