These are products that do not require cooking, smoking, or refrigeration. Insta Cure No. 2 can be compared to the time release capsules used for colds--the sodium nitrate breaks down to sodium nitrite to cure the meat over an extended period of time. Some meats require curing for up to 6 months. Insta Cure #2 contains salt, sodium nitrite (6.25%) and sodium nitrate (1%). Use 1 level teaspoon per 5 lbs. of meat. 5 lbs. of Insta Cure will process approximately 2,400 lbs. of meat. Review: It’s a lot - It’s a lot of cure. Good stuff.

This is only a preservative. Using nitrates as salt would most likely be highly toxic. Better do some homework! **Q: A quick question. A 1 level teasponn can be aprox 3 gr ?? Thanks** A: What teaspoon? They are not all the same. What material? They all vary. A level teaspoon of insta cure#2 might be 4.5 grams. Best to use a scale honestly **Q: 5 lb. of meat + 1 tsp. of insta cure #2, got it.. But In what ratio do I reduce the regular salt amount / if any/that is in the recipe?** A: Reduce by half, for now. When done mixing it all together fry up a sample. To see if you need more. **Q: Does it have an expiration date?** A: It has no expiration date. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s a lot *by J***C on 26 September 2025* It’s a lot of cure.
