we have bought casings from three different places around LA in the past 10 years, but the quality was inconsistent and they were quite pricey, not to mention the fact that with traffic every trip to get them were about 2 hours long. I was a bit skeptical about ordering online, but cannot be more content with the quality and price offered here. Just finished our sausages made at Christmas and ready to order some more today.

I’ve been a hobby customer for around 20 years. The casings, as well as all other products, have been far superior than any other company’s.

I have had other brands of hog casings, but I always come back to The Sausage Maker brand. They seem to be the longest most uniform with the fewest holes or weak spots. Very consistently.

I am not happy at all with my last purchased item.
First at all, it took so long before you shiped it.
Second, when i got the package, one of the bags with the casings was leaking, so the whole box was wet and started to smell bad.
I didn’t used the Casings now, so i don’t know yet if they are still good or not

The casings from the Sausage Maker have way fewer blowouts than the ones from the local ‘carry some of everything store’ and tend to be way longer.

Great product!
Trey Stickland (verified owner) –
Made hog and venison sausage with the product and it stuffed well with no tearing of the casing.
Leo (verified owner) –
The casings are great, very clean and easy to use.
The two rings holding the casings worked great to keep them from tangling up.
First time ordering this, so the size is not as big as expected. But, that’s the beginner’s mistake and is on me.

Package arrived in a sturdy box. I discovered that the bag itself could be re-sealed with my home vacuum sealer, which is a nice plus as it means I don’t have to make a ton of sausage all at once. Product itself worked perfectly. Now I can focus on perfecting my sausage recipe.

This casing is very good quality, and was perfect for making longanisa (Filipino sausage). Shipping and price a bit high but you get what you pay for.

I’ve been using Sausage Maker supplies for close to 30 years. Remember when their catalog was a 10 page flyer. Great company, always satisfied. Starting using their natural casings lately since they’ve been getting hard to find in my area. Good quality and consistent.
Kenneth Louque (verified owner) –
I bought these casings to replace the casings I lost due to hurricane Ida. I have used these casings for the past 2 years for my sausage. Very good casing that rarely if ever has any holes in them. These are my go to casings for making freah and smoked sausage.

Received my casing order as presented @ time order placed,
no surprises. Used next day to make 8#’s of Italian sausage, no real weak points or tears taste good, appears to be real quality casing.

this is the second time that I ordered these casings and have been pleased with the results. I previously could only find casings locally at the area grocery chain and only during the fall of the year. These casings seemed like they were short leftover ends (the longest were 3 ft) and they had all of these unsightly strings attached that had to be individually picked off. They seemed to split very easily. when i received the casings the Sausage Maker, the first thing i noticed is that these casings were full length. the second thing i noticed was that i had virtually no blow outs during the stuffing process and finally there was none of the unsightly membrane strings hanging on to the outside of the casing. i couldn’t have been more pleased.
