Ox Middles are strong walled beef casings, traditionally used for salami, haggis or puddings.

Supplied as 20 x 9m lengths in the tub.

Storage and Usage
We recommend they are stored in a sealed 'Tupperware' type container in a fridge, where they will be fine for at least 3-4 months.

Before use they need to have the salt rinsed from them and then soaked in warm water for at least 20 minutes prior to use.

After soaking, if you don't use all of the Ox Runner, then put the remaining length into a sealed container in a fridge, otherwise it will spoil.

Premium Ox Bungs - Natural Ox Casings for Traditional Butchery

Ox bungs are large, natural ox casings traditionally used in the production of artisan sausages, haggis, black pudding, and other speciality meat products.

Sourced from high-quality cattle, our ox bungs offer exceptional strength and elasticity, making them ideal for high-fill pressure applications without risk of splitting. These casings provide an authentic appearance and traditional texture, essential for butchers and meat producers seeking heritage-style results.

Each ox bung is carefully cleaned and preserved in salt, ensuring long shelf life and easy storage. Simply soak in water before use to restore flexibility and prepare for filling.
