I have not yet had a chance to use this product. I will be using it this weekend when I make some deer sausages. I have been waiting to make these sausages for a week now since I got the Insta Cure #1.

After moving from NY to the South, finding a good pastrami sandwhich was next to impossible. So I decided to make my own. I used your insta cure salt in my brine and your pastrami rub seasoning accordingly. I’m in heaven! I take a bite of my homemade pastrami and I’m immediately transported back to Katz famous deli in NY. Will definitely shop again and highly recommend for anyone who has a desire for fine food seasonings.

Shipping is somewhat delayed. Waiting 7+ days for an order is not ideal.
