Hopefully this gets seen.  So.... I'm planning on making ten lbs of these hot dogs.  Took me a bit to find where to buy the phosphates, as it says to definetly use them.  However, how critical is the "sodium erythorbate"?  the recipe calls fro 1/4 tsp for 5 lbs.  Is there a commercial name for this?  is it required?

Thanks

If you plan to mix, stuff, and smoke all in one shot, I would recommend it. It is a cure accelerant. You can get it from http://butcher-packer.com

Outstanding

Those cellulose casings are the shiznet.

 

[gersus]

Awesome looking wieners there solar! I bet they do taste amazing!

I googled phostphates a while back and didn't find any reason why phosphates would be a "good" addition to home made sausages. Can someone tell me what the benefit is? Thanks!

What recipe are you using?

Erythorbates are a curing accelerator and speeds up curing process. You can stuff and smoke right away.  Take in consideration that SOME pre mixes already have this added. Be careful with SE as 1oz will do 100 lbs of meat.

Also known as Sodium Tri Poly Phosphate and Sodium Phosphate, Brifisol 450 is a food grade phosphate that is used with meat products to help in the retention of moisture and soluble proteins. Sodium Tripolyphosphate is compatible with all curing ingredients such as nitrites, nitrates, sugar, salt and ascorbic acid or its derivative, sodium erythorbate. (Dont confuse this with TSP that can be bought at a hardware store)

When we were kids I told my brother Sodium Erythorbate was ground up salted earthworms! He won't touch hot dogs!!!!

It is a binder to help retain moisture.

Most EXCELLENT  !!!
 

How did you come by the cellulose casings.  All I can find is to buy them in huge quantity.  I'd like to get a hundred of them or so.  I guess they come in strands so 2-3 of them would do me fine.
