Dextros sub for sugar

Hi, Anyone know the ratio to substitute Dextrose for Sugar in a dry bacon cure ?
When I use sugar or honey I get burnt bacon, I had a recipe for cure with dextrose but it was way too salty and not measured by weight.
Thanks

Polish Hot Smoked

Hi Im new here, I been away from the website and was wondering why the recipies on the site changed?
I used to use the Polish hot smoked sausage that cures the meat in cubes for 3 days before adding spices and grinding, just wondering why this one just grinds and stuffs without the 3 day cure.
Thanks
