Description
Our Natural Sheep Casings Home Pack are small, more manageable casings. Ideal for small batches of meat. These casings vary in size and lengths. Perfect for home use and all levels of sausage making. Home Packs are more inconsistent when it comes to length when compared to our butcher-packs of casings.
Natural Sheep Casings Home Packs have varying diameters ranging between 20-30mm (¾ – 1 ¹/8) and varying lengths called shorts.
What Are Shorts
Shorts’ are any short off-cuts of sausage casings that could vary from 3 feet to 20 feet in length.

Refrigeration
The natural casings should be kept refrigerated until ready for use. Un-refrigerated, these salted casings may give off a strong odor. This is Normal. Simply put the casings back into the refrigerator and the odor will subside. Natural casings should never be frozen. It affects their integrity after thawing and will cause more blowouts.
Shipping Information
Natural casings cannot be shipped outside the United States. All natural casings are non-refundable and non-returnable.

This was the perfect amount for 16 # of breakfast sausage. Tougher to rinse and stuff these little casings but worth the extra work in the end.

Packed in salt, and very simple to get ready for stuffing. A lot of pieces much longer than you would expect for a Home Pak. Very happy with them and will purchase again.

I have been using these for lamb/beef sausages (Merguez) for two years now and have not had any problems with holes or knots. Referred a friend and she is as happy as I am. Would definitely recommend.

I haven’t stuffed the casings yet, but they look like the right size to make weiners.

I thought it would be to small to use on my stuffer, but it turned out good. Will buy more.

I had in mind to make 10 lbs. of Frankfurters since my recently commented that some I had made some years ago using Sausage Maker were the best she had ever had. I have made small barches of Franks, salami, and pastrami before with good success. So, I ordered 2 packs of small lamb casings and mixed the meat and spices yesterday. Then today, I tried the lamb casings (which I’m pretty sure I’ve used before). They were too small in diameter and I couldn’t open the ends to wash, rinse, and load ontl my smallest stuffing tube. The problem wasn’t the tube, but my difficulty/inexperience in getting the ends open, whether fresh cut or not. Happily, I had some Sausage Maker pre-tubed of larger diameter, maybe
3/4″ – 1″. Smoking tomorrow. I wish the small diameter casings were available in pre-tubed. I had to toss the first packag od lamb casings, but bought another as a spare. Maybe I can get some guidance in the technique.
