Overview
These edible collagen casings are designed for sausage makers who want a ready-to-use option for smoking, oven cooking, or dehydrator use. Built to be hung in a smoker, they suit small-batch and larger home sausage projects alike, with each strand holding about 8 lbs. and measuring approximately 50 ft. They are intended for snack sticks, hot dogs, metts, andouille, brats, and Polish sausage.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for smoking, oven use, or dehydrator use, but these casings cannot be boiled, so they are not suited to every sausage-making method.
- Each strand is approximately 50 ft. and the pack includes 2 count, so the quantity is geared toward multiple batches rather than small one-off runs.
- The casings are described as holding 6 to 28 lbs. per strand, with the short description also noting 8 lbs. per strand, so expected capacity may vary by use and should be checked against your batch size.
- Ready to use with no soaking needed, but they should be stored in an airtight container, heavy plastic bag, or cool dry place to maintain condition.
