Soooo... I am making smoked kielbasa today. For the second time from the same butcher I have had problems with them providing the amount of casings I ask for. Last time I asked for enough to do 5 pounds, I got enough to do 3. This time I asked for enough to do 10 pounds, but planned on making only 8...they sold me enough to do 4 pounds. The way they do business? I ask for casings and they go in the back and put the casings in a small plastic container like you get at the deli counter and wrap that in plastic wrap. Unless I open the package up in front of them and measure it, I have no real way of telling I am getting what I asked for.
It is a real PIA when me or my wife has to go all the way back there (45 miles, the closest place that sells casings) to get more....
So what do y'all do to make sure you get what you asked for on the first trip?
