## Description

Morton Tender Quick is a fast-cure meat curing mix so you can make cured meats, poultry, game, or fish right in your own kitchen for home cooking and food curing. This pantry staples item gives meats a tasty cured flavor and characteristic pink color. Works particularly well with small cuts of meat, such as pork chops, spareribs, and poultry. Morton Tender Quick mix contains salt, the main preserving agent; sugar, both sodium nitrate and sodium nitrite, curing agents that also contribute to development of color and flavor; and propylene glycol to keep the mixture uniform. Morton Tender Quick is NOT a meat tenderizer. CAUTION: This curing salt is designed to be used at the rate specified in the formulation or recipe for meat preservation. It should not be used at higher levels as results will be inconsistent, cured meats will be too salty, and the finished products may be unsatisfactory. Curing salts should be used only in meat, poultry, game, salmon, shad, and sablefish. Curing salts cannot be substituted for regular salt in other food recipes. Always keep meat refrigerated (36° to 40°F) while curing.

Review: Works well for summer sausage! - Works well for curing. We made a beef summer sausage and the results were great. The flavor was not salty and it helped dry the meat well. It also gave the sausage that reddish color you’re looking for. It seems to be a good value for the size bag. We would recommend it to anyone who wants to try curing meat at home.
Review: Simple and effective - I can't get this locally anywhere. I use it to make corned beef brisket and buckboard (rasher) bacon regularly (1T per pound of meat, cured in the fridge at 5 days per 1" thickness) and German-style pork chops occasionally, smoking the pork chops adds tons of depth. Not only is the end result much-much cheaper than store-bought, the flavors are far better and I have complete control of what goes into my food. If you have a problem with nitrite and nitrate then this isn't something your want to buy - you'll want to avoid celery too. But if you like good eating and want to make your own while maintaining food safety (the nitrites and nitrates are there to protect against botulism bacteria in addition to altering the texture, color, and flavor) then this is what you want for these basic curing tasks. It makes for an exceptional corned beef after 5 days per inch thick. And if you like back bacon (unsmoked) or Canadian-style bacon (unsmoked) then this gets you those very well. You can kick it up a half dozen notches by smoking your cured meat over some nice wood if that's your thing. Best pastrami you'll ever eat. If your objective is air dried, aged, cured sausages and whole muscle (copa, pancetta, etc..) then you might rather explore cure #1 and cure #2 methods. Morton TQ is similar but it isn't those. It's not "fast food" cooking! Expect to wait for your meats to cure if you'd like to do this. Getting in a hurry is a recipe for failure.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this have an expiration date?**
A: It’s SALT, it doesn’t require an expiration date. Then again I’ve seen glass bottles of water with expiration dates, so go figure.

**Q: difference between meat cure and pickling salt**
A: Pickling salt is CaCl, Calcium Chloride. Meat curing salts are Sodium nitrates and nitrites. NOT salt as we know it; or NaCl.

**Q: what percentage of nitrates and nitrites does it contain?**
A: It's on the side of the package in one of the pictures.  .5% of each.

**Q: how long do you leave the cure on the meat?**
A: It takes about 12-24 hours for the cure to permeate an inch of meat. Turkey, for example, is 48 hours. Ribs are just a few hours (4-8).
