 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2      cups          water
    5      pounds        ground beef
    2      teaspoons     onion powder
    2      teaspoons     crushed red pepper
    5      tablespoons   Tender Quick meat curing salt
    1      tablespoon    liquid smoke flavoring
    2      teaspoons     garlic powder
    2      teaspoons     mustard seed
    1      teaspoon      coarsely ground pepper
 
 Combine water, liquid smoke and spices.  Add beef.  Mix well with hands.
 Divide mixture into 3 long rolls.  Wrap each roll separately in heavy
 duty foil.  Fold foil tightly closed down center and on ends.
 Refrigerate rolls 24 hours.  With a fork make holes through foil about
 one inch apart on bottom of rolls (opposite fold).  Place rolls on rack
 of broiler pan (the hole pierced part on the underneath).  Place hot
 water in the shallow pan of the broiler.  Bake rolls on center oven shelf
 at 325 degrees for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.  Remove foil. Salami will be a
 fairly bright pink on both the outside and inside.  Set rolls on rack to
 drain and cool.  Wrap in foil or plastic wrap.  Taste improves with
 storage.  Store in refrigerator up to 10 days.  Store in freezer about
 one month.

 Serving Ideas : Serve with crackers and cheeses
 
 NOTES : I've made this using ground turkey meat.  Also a combination of
 beef and turkey.  I gave this recipe to my cousin who made it using half
 ground pork and ground venison and she said it was wonderful.
