## Overview

Natural Sheep Casings (26-28mm) from The Sausage Maker offer premium, A-grade edible casings perfect for crafting plump hot dogs, brats, and more. With approximately 60 yards of salt-packed, easy-to-handle 3-foot sections sourced from New Zealand and Australia, these casings provide authentic snap, excellent smoke absorption, and a long refrigerated shelf life—ideal for home chefs seeking professional-quality sausage making.

## Description

Natural casings are a great option for sausage making; they are durable while retaining elasticity, and allow for smoke penetration which enhances flavor. This is also the type of casing that gives sausage that distinct “snap” when bitten. Sheep casings are typically smaller and more tender than hog or beef casings, and can be cooked or dried a variety of ways. Smaller diameter sheep casings are typically used to make snack sticks, breakfast links, cocktail franks, and pepperettes, while larger diameters are generally for hot dogs, frankfurters, chipolata, landjaegar or even bratwurst. Our sheep casings are perfect for pretty much any recipe you have in mind and are easily twistable into links; simply select the diameter that suits your needs. All of our casings are “A-Grade”, a high standard that classifies them as having minimal holes and more strength for stuffing fine grinds with less bursts. Our natural sheep casings have been cleaned, flushed, and salted to preserve their freshness, quality and unique characteristics. All of our casings have gone through a strict and thorough cleaning process; always de-whiskered, never bleached. These casings are not whole hank; instead, they are made up of various lengths, called “shorts” (1 yard minimum), making this the perfect option for home sausage makers. Approximately 60 yards long. We recommend keeping these casings in the fridge at all times and have a very long shelf life when stored properly. Un-refrigerated, these salted casings may begin to give off an odor, even though they are not spoiled. Put them back under refrigeration and this odor subsides. Do not freeze; freezing natural casings can cause weakening and tears, which can lead to bursting more frequently when stuffing and cooking. Soak prior to use. This will help the product become tender and pliable, allowing for easier loading onto stuffing tubes.

Review: Not like the prior ones we order. - Update 2022: The prior issues I had were remedied, they do stand by their product. The last batch I ordered were among the best casings I have ever used. Very well laid out, very very long sections and not tangled at all. They are on the thinner side (which I prefer) so some mild care needed to be taken to prevent blow outs but overall I am a very happy customer again. the 20-22mm casings are about perfect. I hope the next order sees them the same length as the last ones. I use these to make chicken sausage. The last two batch’s I have never used the one from oct 23 we had replace the next one came and it was a little bit moister but was not able to use I have both. But never sent them back I paid a lot for them and you were kind enough to replace the first ones but I have ordered these before and never had this problem so I wasted 46 dollars. Can I send them back so you can figure out the problem.
Review: Works great - We got great results and as relatively experienced sausage makers found the product to be quality and up to standard. The 20-22mm had much longer intestines that made our life easier. Will purchase again.
