lol are you buying stuff just to compete in the sausage fest?
that depends on the answer ...
I just use a LEM electric grinder with a stuffing attachment. It works just fine unless you are making huge batches. I've done 50 pound batches many times with just that. It doesnt take long at all. I would like to get a stuffer at some point though.
Hog casings are where it's at, in my opinion.

I can't imagine ever making more than five lbs of any one meat, so an effective manual solution is probably fine, especially since I can leverage the grinding aspect of the kitchenaid ...
Someone liking their kitchenaid stuffer attachment would be great news

I think the non animal casings are ususally used for large or thick sausage like baloney or pepperoni.
When you're eating a whole sausage i.e. bratwurst you want a pork or sheep casing.

I've had a KA mixer for years.
Got the grinding attachment and sausage stuffer.
The grinder I use several times a year.
The sausage stuffer, only once and that for the last sausage throwdown.
It worked great but I'm just not a sausage kine' o' cat.
Onliest sausage's I like to be liking I can't make as good as I can buy.
Which would be Hungarian Kolbase, Spanish Chorizo, or Mexican Chorizo.
When I get the crave on, I usually go with San Manuel from Edinburgh, TX.
The pork is the best commercial I've ever had and it rocks!
It rocks indeed.
