    I would love to do the meat sticks (that didn't come out like I thought it would ;) )

    Anyway, I bought the collagen to give it a shot with some dried fermented sausage.  I always see dried sausages in collagen so I bought some.

    nice.  Did you use the collagen casings?
    For the sticks? Yes. 

    Why did you ask that?
    I make a lot of sausage but I've never tried the collagen.  I picked some up a week ago, just wondering how they worked.
    We used collagen for the brisket missiles we did the other day, which are pretty big diameter (~55 mm).  The texture seems like something that is intended to be peeled before eating, but they worked great.

    There are edible and non-edible collagen casings. Usually the larger collagen casings are the inedibles.

    Technically they're all edible but the big, thick collagen casings, like for summer sausage, are usually removed before eating.  There are also plastic casings that are clearly not edible. They usually make those bright red.

    That is what I meant, just wasn't what I said.
