Natural Sheep Casings 19-21mm 10m

THESE SHEEP CASINGS ARE PERFECT FOR SNACK STICKS / BIERSTICKS OR SKINNY SAUSAGES.

Casings are the hidden superhero of your sausage. Your sausage casing is what keeps all your carefully chosen ingredients, flavours and juices in and it also dictates the texture and eating experience of your final sausage.

We believe sheep casings are the best. They are less prone to chewiness than hog casings and have an amazing ‘semipermeable’ wall which breathes, meaning your beautiful BBQ/cooking/smoking flavours can permeate the casing and infuse your sausage meat.

They also naturally shrink with your sausage meat as you smoke or cure your sausages, which means no air pockets or separation between your sausage and your casing.

The end result is a sausage with better flavour and juiciness, great sizzle and the much prized sausage “pop” that you can only get from a sausage made with a natural casing.
