Why do you leave the mixed meat in the refrigerator for two days?

For the karo to incorporate better into the mix. This will get re mixed later tonight.

TY everyone

Sad news that i had an element melt down while doing the bologna and had to toss it all. This made the water and binder in the meat turn it into mush.

Oh well these things happen.

I trudge on   ;D
