What is the best casing for sausage? What is a good place to find it?

If you can't find any locally, here are a couple of web sources:

http://www.sausagemaker.com/
http://www.askthemeatman.com/sausage_casings.htm
http://www.sausagemania.com/index.html

I've ordered from the first one and gotten good service. Their print
catalog is a useful resource by itself.

Default sausage casing

Here's where I get mine. I use natural hog casings for fresh sausages
and smaller smoked sausages. I use the collogen casings for beef sticks
and the fibrous casings for the heavier smoked sausages such as summer.

Default sausage casing

It is sold in a unit called a "hank" which is way to much for most weekend
grinders. Many grocery stores with real butcher shops will sell you what you
need. You can also order online. The next decision is diameter, which I'd
recommend 1.5 to 2 inch for beginners. Thinned walled casing is easier to
eat but very difficult to fill. I'd start with a stout natural casing and
progress to synthetic later.

I bought casing from "The Sausage Maker" (http://www.sausagemaker.com/)
and you're right jim. A hank is way more then a casual sausage maker can
use. But, it keeps well in the freezer in its original brine.
