Description

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. This pink curing salt #1 not only improves food safety but also enhances color, flavor, and shelf life. Whether you’re making smoked meats or canning cured products, Insta Cure #1 delivers consistent, reliable results for preserving and enhancing the flavor of meat.

  • Use one level teaspoon Insta Cure 1 per 5 lbs. of ground meat
  • One pound of Insta Cure pink curing salt #1 will process approximately 480 pounds of meat

  • 1 gal. water
  • 4 oz. (½ cup) Insta Cure #1 pink curing salt
  • 1 lb. 5 oz. (1¾ cup) salt
