10 lbs. Recipe

• 8 lbs. lean pork & 2 lbs. back fat
• 2 level tsps. of lnstacure #2
• 9 1/2 oz. of Sopressata seasoning

Preparation:

Chill the lean pork and back fat to 32 – 34°F to ensure easy grinding and mixing. Grind all the meat and pork fat through a  3/8″ grinder plate.

Add Instacure #2 and Sopressata seasoning to the ground meat.Mix well to ensure even distribution of the seasoning and cure.

Transfer the mixed meat into a tub container, packing it tightly, not exceeding 6-7 inches in height.Refrigerate the packed meat for 48 hours to allow the cure to penetrate.

Second Grinding: After 48 hours, remove the meat from the refrigerator. Grind the meat through a 1/4″ grinder plate. Stuff the ground meat into an Natural Hog Middles 55-60mm (casing).

Hold the stuffed soppressata at about 55°F for another 48 hours. Place the sausage in a smokehouse. Apply cold smoke for 48 hours until the desired color is obtained.

After smoking, keep the soppressata at a temperature of 50-60°F with a humidity level of around 70-80%. This aging process should continue for about 8-10 weeks. The soppressata is ready when it loses about 30% of its initial (green) weight. This weight loss is a key indicator that the soppressata has dried and cured properly.
