You can stick it in the end which may or may not be open depending on the type of casing but in general, it won’t matter

Once you get to the point where they may be done, the casing does little for you.

Or, you can do something like what I did. I used a “sacrificial” sausage that had a probe inserted in it, and I assumed the others would be close enough. The sacrificial one got eaten that day and never got packaged.
