Description

Mahogany Collagen Casings 16mm are perfect for smoked sticks, snack sticks, venison sticks or small diameter pepperoni or salami. Edible; tender and delicate, yet durable.

Ideal casings for smoking and hold up better than natural casings. Used for making dried sausage sticks or other semi-dry or dry cured products. These casings are made to be more durable to carry the weight of the meat when hanging on a smokehouse stick. Collagen casings are a natural product made from a refined layer of cattle hide. Because of this, collagen casings are much more uniform in size, when compared to traditional natural casings. 

Comes with 5 half strands per package. Stuffing capacity per package approximately 17 lbs. per package (123 feet).* 

How to Use 

  • To preven tears, only use a stainless steel stuffing tube with an outside dimension of  ½”
  • Easy to use. Do not require soaking; simply unravel and load onto stuffing horn. When twisting into links, twist first link in one direction and then twist next link in the opposite direction to prevent unraveling, being careful to not over twist (maximum two full twists).
  • Keep sealed and under refrigeration when not in use. If casings become brittle, sip in water briefly prior to use.

    I really like this stuff. Where was it when I was a kid? If you make a lot of snack sticks, this is the way to go. Collagen won’t hold a link but in smaller diameters like 16 or 19 mm, you don’t need links. Simply stuff an entire coil and allow it to set up 5 minutes. Put two pieces of tape on your countertop for designated length of sausages, and then simply cut snack sticks to length with a sharp pair of scissors. Lay them out on a smoke screen and allow them to bloom. Easy and perfect! Good luck.

    Perfect for snack sticks. A tad smaller than average if you are looking for a thinner stick. Smokes a little quicker than standard sizes as well.

  21. Mark Armstrong (verified owner) –

    We did 15 lbs. of elk/venison/pork sausage and it turned out great. Maybe a touch to much salt but that was our problem. The casings held up well. We had two small blowouts but for we did, no big deal. Liked the size and the overall quality.

  22. Timothy H. (verified owner) –

    The casings are always fresh, the seasonings are always spot-on, the service is always friendly, and the shipping always finds my house. Why go someplace else….

  23. Doug G. (verified owner) –

    Love these casings for Slim Jims!

  24. Tim Mannett (verified owner) –

    Not all are the same, this product stands out from all others because of one word “Quality”. The casings were used and I discovered the end results were much better (no blow outs under normal stuffing) than the competitors brand, Elasticity was outstanding, when the snack sticks were smoked the casings bonded with the meat much better than with the other brands
    Thanks will be ordering more in the future from The Sausage Maker.

  62. Ronald Esteppe (verified owner) –

    I received the casings much quicker than expected. I may be doing something wrong, but the casings do not adhere to the farce as I expected or to.

    I use them in my dehydrator and so far they work great. I have not had any rupture, break or tear. They dry evenly in my dehydrator and help my jerky retain its taste.

    I used these casings before for snack sticks and needed them right away fortunately they came a day earlier and was stuffing them that night.

    I have not tried these yet, but will soon. I bought these to attempt to duplicate Slim Jims. We will see.

  74. Andrew (verified owner) –

    Pro: Durable quality casing, easy to hang in the smoker, and no blow outs. They have a nice snap when eating them, and I love the thinner diameter.

    Con: They are somewhat more difficult to stuff, and are more time consuming.

    I used a 12mm tube on my 5lb LEM hand crank stuffer. It worked, but I had to uncoil about 32 inches of casing at a time, cut it, and slide that on to the tube. This really slowed things down, and I spent twice as long as if I had used 19mm casings. In the end the final product was excellent, but I recommend buying the smaller 10mm tube, or using larger casings.

  85. S. Torres (verified owner) –

    I enjoy the coloration variation of these casings for making snack sticks. Gives a richer hue to the finished product. The down side is they tend to blow out-split- easily and I really have to watch my speed and stuff the machine well to prevent air.

  86. James Szymas (verified owner) –

    Always Happy with my purchases from Sausage Maker

  87. Justin (verified owner) –

    Best size for a snack stick. Retained a great smoky flavor and didn’t dry out or shrivel.

    Q What is the source of collagen for these casings? answer now
    A

    Collagen casings are made from processed CATTLE hides/skins
    2. Can we update this information? You can not stuff 16mm casings with a 1/2" tube. I purchased these casings assuming my 1/2" tube would work. I had to purchase a 10mm tube in order to use these 16mm tubes

    A

    Hi Scott,

    You could but we don't sell a 1/2 plastic stuffing tube. Therefore we recommend our 1/2 stainless steel stuffing tube, if you have a 1/2" plastic tube then you can use that! Let us know if you need anything else.

    Take care,
    Meghan
