Do you guys use pink salt (Prague powder #1) in your jerky? I make small batches, 2 pounds, so it doesn’t sit around long. Am I running a risk by not using the curing salt?

I thought about it, and may next time. I've heard it makes for a more tender, more like store bought jerky.

Let us know if you try it will ya’?
In reading on it there seems to be some danger in using too much but I don’t know enough to say.

Prague Powder is the same as Cure #1. Cure #1 contains 6.25% of sodium nitrite and 92.75% of salt. The nitrite breaks down to nitrates and protects against some bacteria when the temperature will remain in the danger zone for longer than is normally safe.

Cold smoking is often in this zone, so you can add cure #1 to reduce the bacterial danger. It also adds color.

What you don’t want to do is OVER use the cure.

Look up any number of online calculators to assure yourself that you’re not going over the 156 parts per million recommendation.
