IMHO Its better to spend the bucks on quality casings rather than wasting money on the home packs...... A hank should last you a long time.... Shelf life is 2 years....
I have been buying the small packs of sheep casing for weiners. However sometimes they are too small. Does anyone out there know where I can buy the 22 to 24mm casings with out spending $50 or $60 bucks.
