Ok, so I did my first attempt at turkey pepperoni today. Looking fir some advice here. I have pretty much got regular pepperoni down to a science, but this one has thrown me a bit.  I used 93/7 lean turkey with no filler (same as I do on my beef pepperoni) but this has come out a bit chewy, and the casing doesn't have that "snap" when you bite into it like my other pepperoni does.  Anybody got any thoughts or suggestions?

I have had pretty good luck with this stuff on ground chicken and turkey. Also I always use Worcester sauce for flavor and color.

And this will help with shrinkage and stuff? What about the chewiness? (is that a word or a scottieism???)

It's just a fat substitute to give it a better texture. If you are not worried about fat content, just sub about 10% pork fat.
