After reading about cures I have a question.
If a recipe calls for a cure#1 or Prague powder can you use a different cure instead if you don't have that like tender quick. How about when I calls for cure #2? If I read it correctly you can interchange the cure#1 with tender quick minus the extra salt but when the recipe calls for cure#2 you must use cure#2? I could be wrong but if someone could please provide to me the correct answer that would be AWESOME!
