Try any grocery store with a butcher. IF you ask the butcher they'll normally sell you some

you dont realy need casing, just make the sausage like patties when doing berggers for the hambergger,, save money and still tast the same,, good luck,,

what is a reasonable price to pay for casings?[I've never used them,always made rolls and sliced them for patties]My friend wants some in casings so they can be dried

Red barn market on vanalman will sometimes sell casings if you call ahead. I bought some in Duncan at the meat market too. They were about $11.00 for 24 lbs worth of smokie size.

Order from Stuffers in Langley, they only take 2-3 days in the mail.

Do you want natural or synthetic ? Glenwood meats has it all and your best bet ! I think I paid $30 & it makes 100 kgs of sausage !

if you don't use all the casings-how long can they be stored?

I have kept collagen casings in a zip-lock in the crisper tray of the fridge for over a year and they worked out great. I would guess once the natural are open they would have a shorter shelf life but I don't know for sure.
