Original Wild West Hog Sausage Casings

[BraveKnight]

Hello all,

I was looking on the Canadian tire website the other day and found the Original Wild West Hog Casings. http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/original-wild-west-hog-sausage-casings-1750588p.html#.Ut6PpRDn-Uk

Has anyone used these are they any good?

My dad mentioned that he used these recently. He said they work as well as any hog casings he has used from butchers or anywhere else and he's been making sausage for over 30 years

I will be trying them out on some 3 cheese bacon jalepeno smokies this weekend.

Will you be making this from a kit or from scratch? If from scratch , care to share the recipe??

I will look around and see if I can find it. We only have one copy and it may be with the old man.

It's based on a smoked venison polish sausage recipe that we modified, then I just added the cheese (cubed and frozen before mixing), cooked bacon (thicker is better) and jalapenos (fresh if you can) to make the best damn home made smokies I have ever tried.

For me. I don't have any wild game as of yet so I will have to use beef/pork. This fall will be my first hunt...Not sure if I should just go for Deer this year or Elk. I just don't have a lot of freezer room right now. I think for the breakfast sausages I will use the maple ones I saw on here (http://www.huntingbc.ca/forum/showthread.php?59833-Breakfast-Sausage&p=1053275#post1053275). For the Italian I think I will go with this one that I found http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/homemade-mild-italian-sausage-recipe/index.html
