    collagen vs. sheep

    Hi all, Instead of hijacking a recent thread, I thought I would start a new one. I have been using 19mm collagens for snack sticks and  was thinking of ordering some 18/20mm sheep casings from syracuse casing. The pre tubed ones. I have the Cabelas 1/2" SS stuffing tube.  Anyone who has used...

    how do you decide between natural casings and collagen?

    Steve, I think it's referring to the latest technology in collagen casing production. If your supplier of casings has an "older generation" of casings you might want to get them somewhere else     Here's what I buy Here's where I get them...

    Interested in smoking sausage on my stick burner?!?

    Hi Chris, I asked the same questions once about my Stump's smoker. During the winter, with a Guru or Stoker type temp controller I can keep my pit as low as 150 deg. Ramping through the temp stages of sausage making would be difficult, impossible in the summer. Like Dave said you could cold...

    When is there to much fat

    If your "adding" 25% fat to pork butt it might be. If you adding it to pork loin it might be perfect.

    Snack Stick Curing?

    Welcome Jeremy. I am by no means an expert. Like others on here I copied the experienced sausage makers from various forums. I have made 10-12 batches of snack sticks. I grind chuck, add spices, cheese, and 1 tsp cure #1 per 5lbs meat. I use a lot of water to help the meat flow through the small...

    Anyone use the smoke daddy or anything like it?

    The AMNTS works best in my smoker. I have an AMNPS also. Both are awesome. Todds pellets are the best. I've tried others and they don't compare.

    Shipping your sausage??

    It can be done as Chef JimmyJ said, but you would have to go overnight air. $$$$$$$$$$$  Maybe second day, but you would need a big cooler and more ice. Probably cost as much as overnight cause of the weight.

    Shipping your sausage??

    What kind of sausage are you referring to? I shipped some of my summer sausage and snack sticks to family for xmas. I sent instructions to refrigerate when they got it. It got rave reviews. I know some of the guys ship snack sticks overseas. If it is cured and cooked properly it should be fine...
