Insta Cure™ #1 is a trusted pink curing salt used for meats that require cooking, brining, smoking, or canning. Also known as Prague Powder #1, this USDA-approved formula is essential for both home and professional meat processors. Each 1 lb. pack contains a blend of salt, 6.25% sodium nitrite, and an anti-caking agent, making it easy to apply evenly in your curing recipes.

Insta Cure #1, also known as Prague Powder #1, is commonly used to cure ham, bacon, corned beef, sausage, poultry, and fish, helping to reduce the growth of harmful bacteria, such as botulism.

    I’ve been using the Sausage Maker’s Instacure #1 for several years now and have always found it to be fresh and free-pouring for easy measurement. A little goes a long way (1 tsp will do 5# of meat!) so a pound of it will make several home-sized batches of sausage.

    I’ve use this product any ties and found it to be consistent and reliable.
