              kyle your distilled water add falls in line I think equals 1 oz water per 1 pound of meat. 25 lbs equals 25 ounces.
              1cup equals 8 ounces, 3 cups equals 24 ounces. You claim you use 3 cups for 25 lbs meat.
              That has been my rule of thump 1 ounce of distilled water to 1 lb of meat on all my sausages and sticks but have never factored in sure gel.
              Thanks for sharing what you do!
