Tubed Natural Sheep Casings Lengths
-
I rarely use anything but natural casings, with the exception of summer sausage. As John Belvedere stated, give plenty of prep soak time before you use them. That has been the key for me. When making a large batch, I’ll rinse them and leave to soak overnight in the refrigerator. They’ve been fine when the work starts in the morning. Without at least a 2 hour soak, they tend to be more prone to blowouts. Start stuffing slowly, and you’ll get the hang of how fast you can go. Good luck, and I’m sure you’ll do fine.

Here here. Exactly right rinse inside and out. They are surprisingly tough after the soak. -

Awhile ago (before I found Walton’s) I bough a hank of 22-24mm sheep casings from a different supplier. I bought a hank because I hate the home pack lengths. Unfortunately the hank I bought were all 4-6 ft. lengths. Does anyone know the average casing length of Walton’s 22-24mm Tubed Natural Sheep Casings.
I hope you can share the source of those short length casing with the rest of us so no one else spends their money there.
I can’t imagine any reputable supplier selling casings like what you described.processhead said in Tubed Natural Sheep Casings Lengths:

I’m so fed up with political, company and personal belief bashing that the net seems to have nurtured so well. I also do not want to bring any of that negativity here. I was brought up with the saying if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say it. I’m sure we all can agree that anything we have purchased from Walton’s exceeded our expectations. With that said I just bought their tubed sheep casings and I’m sure I’ll be very happy with them.

Rather than start another thread,
What is the difference between the sheep and the hog casings?
I seem to remember the first is the diameter and the second was the ease to stuff?

Those are the two key differences. Sheep casings also have a thinner wall thickness than hog casings.
I find that sheep casings are harder to put on a stuffer funnel tube if they are not sleeved. The thinness of sheep casing requires more dexterity to get them started on the tube.

For hog and sheep casings, go to the link. The column at the left breaks down the various casing sizes.
