Bearded Butcher Hot Jerky Seasoning & Natural Cure Kit for 10 lb

The Bearded Butcher Hot Jerky Seasoning & Natural Cure Kit is a convenient, pre-measured blend for preparing up to 10 pounds of spicy homemade jerky from beef, venison or other meat. This exact Hot variety combines sea salt with cayenne pepper, paprika, habanero pepper, celery seed, garlic, onion and other seasonings to give finished jerky a pronounced peppery flavor. Cultured celery powder is incorporated into the blend as a natural curing ingredient, so there is no separate cure packet to measure or distribute. The kit can be used with ground meat or whole-muscle cuts, making it suitable for jerky formed with an extruder as well as traditional sliced jerky. For ground applications, spread the blend evenly over the meat before grinding, mix it thoroughly and form the seasoned meat into strips. Whole-muscle meat should be cut into approximately ¼-inch strips and mixed until the seasoning is evenly distributed. In either application, the seasoned meat should marinate under refrigeration overnight before it is cooked, smoked or dried. The manufacturer directs users to bring the jerky to an internal temperature of 165°F to 170°F and continue processing until it reaches the preferred dryness. This 0.38-pound package contains enough seasoning and natural cure for one full 10-pound batch, while the manufacturer’s conversion information allows smaller batches to be prepared when the correct proportions are maintained. Because curing depends on accurate ratios and proper temperature control, the blend should be used according to its directions and must not be combined with a synthetic cure containing sodium nitrite. The finished product is not shelf stable without additional ingredients or processing steps and should be packaged appropriately, then refrigerated or frozen when extended storage is needed.
