OK. Dumb question. Why use those casings? Is it for surface area smoke penetration?

Well done as always!!!
OK then soaking it is!! off to work :-[
Looks good! What kind of bags are you using with the Food Saver?
OK....I read this thread many times and I failed to see anything about soaking ....what did I miss? Did they get soaked after the smoke? If you guys had communications by phone ...we are out of the loop.....Heck I never knew I was in the loop. ;D
Yup soak em just like fibrous or synthetic.
ADH
The bags are zip vac bags from Cabelas. 100x better than the FS bags
Sailor
Your in the loop my friend ;D

Or I can tell you that a single 80mm x 49 feet is $54 and change and the Shipping is in the neighborhood of $12 Fedex When it comes it looks like a giant collagen casing, then you make your own lengths from it.
In your estimation how long of a length would you use to stuff a lb or two.?

A one pound chub I would use 10 inches and a 2 pound chub I would use a 20 inch casing These are pretty good sized so it is probably holding about 1/2 pound more than that but the 10 and 20 inch lengths are what I make out of it. They fit in the Bradley 4 rack better at those lengths.
The 20 inch length fit nice in the 6racker with some space to spare.
54 + 12 + 6 (to re-ship) = 72 / 2 = 36 for approx 25 ft.
I will split an order with someone if they want to.
Hey Sonny,
I knew I had seen some online - your buddies at Allied Kenco have them -- enough to do 5 1/4 lb. for 4.61 not sure if they are the same diameter

Nepas I believe he is talking about splitting one of them casings like mine
nepas, someone did pm me and ask to split the 49 ft.
I am calling this morn and maybe can buy a longer length for less money.
After I gather the info, I will call you before I order.
