Sure gel binder not available at this time. Using carrot fiber instead. Used it once before and it really pulled the moisture out of my sausages. Any advice for this stuff as far as mixing more water or using less binder.

Not able to get sure gel, having to use carrot fiber. Used it once before and it pulled way to much moisture from the product. Any advice for this. More water in mixing, maybe less binder. Making 25 pound batches. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Grimpuppy bingo, I’ll give the dry milk and phosphate a go. Sounds like thats the ticket. Appreciate it brother

goatherder I have used 1 lb of dry powered milk as a substitute for binder on 25 lb batches of summer sausage many times and it works great.

I made my own sure gel A few years ago with A 3 parts powered milk to 1 part cold phosphate. It works great, I prefer soy protein with pork but use my homemade sure gel for chicken.
