"This makes a great gift suggestion over the holidays."
INGREDIENTS
5 pounds ground beef
5 teaspoons sugar-based curing mixture (such as Morton® Tender Quick®)
1/4 cup mustard seed
3 tablespoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon hickory-flavored liquid smoke
DIRECTIONS
Combine beef, curing mixture, mustard seed, garlic powder, cayenne, red pepper flakes, salt and liquid smoke into a large bowl. Cover with plastic and keep it chilled for 3 days. Stir occasionally.
After 4 days, the mixture is ready for use. Start turning the oven on to 200 degrees F (100 degrees C).
Shape mixture into 5 logs and set them over a wire rack placed onto a large drip pan. Give it 8 hours to bake and then transfer onto paper towels to cool. Use plastic wrap over the logs and refrigerate prior to slicing.
