As with everything I’ve bought through Sausage Maker from my grinder and stuffer to casings and bacteria starters, I am very happy with the bung I recently ordered.
Everything ships and shows up quickly and I’ve never had to deal with a mistake.

Great product – ordering multiple of them was a little “clunky” on the website, had to add one, it would take me to check out and then go back to shopping to add another. Probably would have bought 10 if the quick selection had worked! But great product! Drying very evenly, no holes in he casings I’ve used to Samar and are developing mold very evenly on my products drying.

This is becoming a very hard to find item in small quantities elsewhere, but “Sausage Maker” carries them in ‘2 Packs” and the packaging quality itself is exceptional.
Order processing was super-quick, and now that I know of “Sausage Maker”, I will definitely be a return Customer.

I used the bung to make royal (venison) haggis. Worked great. I did overstuff it and had a split during the final boil but managed to save everything.
