▲▲ I agree with either of the fixes above▲▲. Many hot link recipes have beef in them as well as pork, you could add some ground beef to dilute the saltiness.

The good thing is you are not super heavy on saltiness.... And you did mean Tenderquick and not Instacure right? I use Bigwheel's Hot Link Recipe and for a 7 pound batch (pork/beef) it calls for 2T of Tenderquick and 1t kosher salt. It also calls for ice cold beer instead of ice water for your mixing liquid, so maybe that has an effect on the saltiness.
