pickling salt?

[driedstick]

I was just reading a couple different recipes for snack sticks, and seen they were using pickling salt in their snack sticks - has anyone used this and does it give some kind of a tang or what? recipes looks good and I was going to give it a try. 

here is the recipe

Red Hot Snack Sticks
 

4 1/2 lbs beef chuck (2.1 kg)
1/2 lb fresh beef fat (227 g)
2 1/2 tbsp pickling salt (48.7 g)
1 tsp Prague Powder #1 (5.7 g)
1 tsp dry mustard powder (2.3 g)
1 tsp liquid smoke, optional (5 ml)
1 1/4 tsp garlic powder (3.88 g)
1 1/2 tsp coriander, ground (2.55 g)
1 1/2 tbsp Ancho chili, ground (12.6 g)
1 1/2 tbsp red pepper flakes (9.45 g)
2 tbsp corn syrup solids (27.6 g)
1 cup non-fat dry milk (94.6 g)*
1 cup ice cold water (236 ml)

Put kosher salt in food processor. Run food processor for 90 seconds. You now have pickling salt.

DS for more tang replace half the NFDM with the Cultured Buttermilk Powder.

I may have to give that a try, this is just one of the recipes I was reading, I don't know which one I will go with for sure yet. 

Thanks Richie
