I am looking for a place to buy Morton's Tender Quick. The stores around here don't know what it is.

Is there another option for this product?

Years ago you could find Morton Tender Quick at any major grocery store but the last two times I bought it I could only find it at Albersons, they still had it 2010.

USE MORTONS TENDER QUICK SALT ONLY
by: Anonymous

We tried to find Tender Quick salt in our area with no luck either. One local meat company said they knew exactly what I was talking about and sold me curing salt for making sausages, hams, etc. However DON'T ever use this as a substitute because the consistancy and concentration is not the same. We used it to make sausage and it was far from edible! Had to through away 6 lbs of sausage. Needless to say don't buy anything other than MORTONS TENDER QUICK SALT if that is what the recipe calls for.

Where To Buy Morton's Tender Quick
by: SmokerBill

You can purchase Morton's Tender Quick at the online store at the Morton Salt website. Here's a link to the page...

Morton Salt- Morton's Tender Quick

I don't know of any curing mixes that are an exact substitution for Tender Quick. It contains salt, sugar, and the curing salts (sodium nitrate and sodium nitrite). There's just a small percentage of the curing salts in the Tender Quick mixture.

You could do a search for "Prague powder", which is a type of cure. However, I'm not sure of it's concentration, and how much you would have to use if it were suitable to use instead of Tender Quick.
