Sausage Casings

For any of the people out there making their own sausage, do you use natural or collagen casings? Also, are you buying them locally or online?

Collagen from Brothers. Do you have a source?

I grabbed about a baseball size bundle of natural from 2 boys in dartmouth a while ago. Keep them in the freezer, thaw in water as needed, refreeze the rest. They go a long way.

NATURAL!

Natural are so much more forgiving if you're a beginner. Our attempts at collagen were such a pain that we almost gave up on the hobby. Natural changed my life. You can buy them at Horyls in new Waterford if you're on the Island.
