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.

    This is a lifetime supply for us, but it works as claimed. We brined, then smoked up some goose breasts and they are delicious.

    5 lbs. should hold me for a bit. I make a lot of bacon and also sausage. I chose the 5 lbs. because I like knowing that I will not run out when I need it.
