Post by: jagermiester on October 24, 2013, 10:47:06 PM: Anybody have a good website to by collagen casings a little cheaper? I am also looking a 3/8 stuffing tube for my vertical LEM stuffer and a good buy on dextrose powder. I got on Amazon but it all seemed a little expensive.

Sausagemaker.com

I highly suggest going natural casings though. After years of experimentation with Pepsticks / sausage I have found the product is just better with a good quality natural casing.

As for the Tube I got mine directly from LEM.

Funny story last year after duck season I went to get some casings at Outdoor emporium and they were out. The guy working there pretty much thought I was an idiot because it was right in the middle of sausage making season (I still am not sure of the dates of that season). I thought they should have stocked up for the imaginary season but we finally concluded that I was in the wrong for not stocking up early. So that is what I will be doing this year. Once again thanks for he great leads.

I never know if I am going to be successful, so I don't buy until I have meat in the freezer. Funny how the salesman will tell you you waited too long, and I always tell them their ordering guy screwed them out of a sale...
