3/15/2014 – Why does Blend #10 say "Bag No.25" on it? Why doesn't the label mention which Blend is in the bag?
Response From Southern Indiana Butcher Supply: Bag No 25 indicates that the bag will season 25 pounds of meat. If you look on the back side of the bag you will find a string of six numbers, a space, and a "10", a "6" or a "7" indicating the blend number. This is how Leggs labels these seasonings.
3/24/2010 – How do you make smaller batches? and how do I use the soy grits with it and how much. Let's say 4 lbs? (soy grits 20/40).
Response From Southern Indiana Butcher Supply: You can use this seasoning to make smaller batches by adding approximately 2 level teaspoons of seasoning to 1 pound of meat. You can adjust this amount to your taste preference. Soy grits are normally not used with fresh sausage but if the sausage is very lean it can be used to aid moisture retention by adding from 1% up to 3%. For example, if you were making 100 pounds of product, 1% would be 1 pound of soy grits. 3 pounds of soy grits would be 3% and so on. In 4 pounds of product I will recommend you use about an ounce or about 2 level tablespoons. Tests have shown that soy grits rehydrated in water before adding to the mix improve moisture retentive qualities.
1/8/2010 – could you please tell me how much seasoning i would use per pound as i only make five or ten pounds at a time.
Thank you
Response From Southern Indiana Butcher Supply: The product lable states that one 8 ounce package will correctly season 25 pounds of meat. The most accurate method of measurement for smaller size batches is to weigh .02 lb of seasoning per pound of meat. For 10 pounds we would use .2 lb of seasoning, for 5 pounds of sausage we would use .1 lb of seasoning. If you do not have a scale to weigh these small amounts then you can measure by teaspoons. 2 teaspoons of seasoning per pound of meat will yield an almost exact measurement. You may also adjust the seasoning up or down to taste.
