Directions: It is recommended to use 1 level tsp for every 5 pounds of meat or 1 oz. for every 25 lbs. of meat. For wet brining, use a noncorrosive container such as plastic, glass, or stainless steel. Simply mix the salt and any other preferred spices with cold distilled water and completely submerge the meat. Use 1 quart of brine for every 4-6 pounds of meat. Always cure the meat in the refrigerator and turn or flip it once or twice daily in order to cure evenly. Do not stack meat slabs or use the same brine more than once. Curing time depends on the type of meat being cured. We recommend you follow your recipe precisely.
