If you want to use Morton's Tenderquick, check out this recipe http://www.bradleysmoker.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1754 . Dry curing is better for me, because of the refrigerator space. If your local Walmart doesn't have it your can get it online from here http://www.alliedkenco.com/cure.htm . Look at the top of the left column and click on Morton Surgar Cures. I use the Morton Tenderquick (first one listed), and not their sugar cures.

Jay,
One can buy Morton's TQ at nearly any large supermarket in my area. Sometimes it is in the section with the canning and preserving supplies. (Eastern OK). You can also order it directly from Morton's Salt Co http://www.mortonsalt.com/ . The concentrations of nitrite and nitrate in TQ and the Plain Sugar Cure are the same, it's the other stuff that varies. The smoke flavored Sugar Cure is made for dry curing only. Both TQ and Sugar Cure can be used as brines or for dry curing. Morton's book on butchering and preserving meat has a lot of good information in it and is cheap. Some recipes on the website. Lots of good stuff available from The Sausagemaker, too. www.sausagemaker.com . I have dealt with them for over 30 years. They have most stuff and Rytek Kutas' great book.

I looked high and low for Morton's TQ in and around Redding CA. I found only one place that had it, a feed store near Anderson. I guess there isn't a big demand for it. I bought two bags but maybe I should pick up more.

Guy,

What ever you do don't buy direct from Morton, the shipping is down right STUPID.

However, do go to Butcher-Packer. They have it along with other favorites of mine. They are very reasonalbe. CLICK HERE>>>Butcher-Packer
