Water… I do 1oz per lb. That may vary depending.

How much water to the 1 oz?

Appreciate the assistance.

What is your meat block? Beef, Pork, Venison, Poultry? What fat and what is fat to lean ratio?

I just made 10 lbs jalepeno/cheddar summer sausage. 65% deer, 35% pork with high temp cheeze. I added 2.4 oz Sure Gel and 1-2/3 cups water. Followed Walton’s smoking schedule. Sausage turned out very juicy and tasty, but the texture was “spongy” when chewing. Also, the juiciness of the meat caused the cheese to be slightly “gooey”. Should I back off on the Sure Gel or water or both? Should I not use Sure Gel if I have cheese? Looking for advice.
