Hi Eric - Tip number 5: When starting to stuff your casing - fill your applicator tube with meat and then overfill slightly. You then have a nice little bulge to work over which opens the casing as you're pushing it on.

Great video Eric. I have watched all your videos up to now on casings. But what a great little refresher for us seasoned veterans, and love these short videos for the new sausage maker's out there. 9 times out of 10 when new people to sausage making need assistance I send them to yoir videos. I learnt most of my techniques from you over the last 5 year and I have had great success thanks to you. And looking so forward to CELEBRATE SAUSAGE. Thanks for another great video Eric. Cheers

Your tip about the baking soda worked great. As it was when your video came on I was making hot gut sausages so I tried the baking soda trick and it worked perfectly.

Hi Eric, I just prepared 2.2kgs of droëwors yesterday. This is now hanging in my biltong box. 2.2kgs made roughly 7.5m of wors using natural sheep casings. I used Crown National Safari spice, some brown malt vinegar, and some Worcester sauce with 15% fat beef. But, and there is a but, I never saw your video before I rinsed my casings and it took me two+ hours and a lot of patience to untangle them. I almost missed the Rugby World Cup match between the All Blacks and Ireland. Pressing on, I was using a plastic 12mm horn and my casings were struggling to release as they were filled. I had two breakages. So, thank you for the great video and your clear explanations to understand where I went wrong. My wife and I really enjoy your channel and we will be trying more of your sausage recipes soon. Greetings from Glasgow, Scotland.

Got a call from a friend last week saying that they had run out of sheep casing for breakfast sausages they were in the middle of making. I brought them an unopened jar of sheep casing from the sausage maker. They said they always have such a hard time with sheep casings, so I showed them all the steps you covered in this video based on what I had learned by watching your channel since celebrate sausage season 1 and told them to check you out on youtube. I just emailed them this video link and hope they become your next subscribers. Perfect timing! Looking forward to this October. I have been making a pinwheel Italian sausage utilizing sheep casings, pork, parsley and plenty of Parmesan cheese for a couple of decades now. If you are taking suggestions for this years celebrate sausage I'd be willing to share the recipe for this family and friends favorite.

I bought some AA casings from the Sausage Maker (there is a marked difference with the better casings), I added baking soda but I broke my auger on my Carnivore meat grinder so my casings had to sit in the water with baking soda for over a week until my auger replacement arrived. I was worried that being in the baking soda solution for so long would damage the casings. No problem at all, no casing blowouts, made great sausages.

Always great videos, so thanks once again. The one related topic that seems to be missing, is how do you “re-store” casing safely? Does it make a difference whether brine packed or salt packed? I have been taking them and freezing them in a highly concentrated brine… Kosher salt or other non-iodine salt with a bit of water. Though I’ve never had problems, please provide the ideal way to store them. TIA

yes if they have already been soaked and stretched , just add a tablespoon of salt to the casings and let them drain in the fridge ocernight. discard the excess water and place the salted casings back with the others.

Eric what’s your opinion on using white distilled vinegar? I’ve been using this to soften my casings and I get a nice snap from hog and sheep casings. Next time I’ll try the baking soda but I would like your opinion on this. As always another Great video.
@2guysandacooler

vinegar much like lemon juice is an acid and the acid very slowly eats away at the lining of the casing. Thie rapidly tenderizes them. Too much time in a vinegar solution can make the casings fragile. Personally, I've found that an overnight soak in either regular water or water with baking soda works well for me. With that being said, if someone wanted to rapidly get their casings ready a little vinegar will surely do the trick😉

Eric, thank you so much for this great video. I bought some cheaper sheep casings and they were a super pain in the neck. I somehow got them to work well enough to make a small batch of merguez sausage but I had blowout after blowout. Paying more for a good casing will work out cheaper in the long run and one will keep their sanity! I am subscribed and love your channel. It is without question the best overall channel for sausage making. That said, being originally from England I am also a fan of Scott Rae. Would you consider doing a review of his home made rusk? I use it all the time and it works great for me. I would love to see your review of it. See the rusk video here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/qn2azYOtgYh_iJw.
