   I am having a blast trying all the jerky recipes on here. My questions are 1) Can you add curing salt even on the recipes that don't list it as an ingredient, for max safety? And 2) The recipes that list something as a 'topping' (like Hot shot and Chipotle chili seasoning), would it be ok to just mix the items into the marinade (maybe increasing the amounts)? I use a vacuum marinator, and the solids in the marinade like black pepper end up sticking pretty well to the strips, I don't dry with paper towels, just dump everything into a colander and shake it dry

     Hey Mike! I'm glad to hear you are enjoying the website. You can definitely add curing salt to any recipe to help prevent potential bacteria in the jerky. You also can just add the extra to the marinade and use your vacuum marinator. If the strips hold the seasoning well, it's better to do it that way. When you sprinkle it on, it tends to brush off very easily when eaten. Sounds like you have everything under control over there!
