I have some Jalapeno Summer Sausage and Tons Summer seasoning to make some summer sausage. I was planning to use ECA so I could stuff and smoke. However, I looked at the ingredients on the seasonings and the Jalapeno has Citric Acid listed and Tons Summer has Sodium Erythorbate. Do I still need ECA with these to stuff and smoke immediately? Does having those ingredients in the seasoning mix still allow me to hold in the fridge overnight if I don’t use ECA?

Jonathon Thanks guys. That’s kinda what I figured. I made it this weekend and didn’t use The ECA. I let it sit overnight and smoked the next day. It turned out great thanks to the info I’ve read here and the information on the website.
