ABSTRACT Apparatus is disclosed which is suitable for deshirring and smoothing a shirred tubular casing as the casing is being stuffed. The tubular casing has an interior surface of predetermined internal diameter when unshirred. The apparatus includes a hollow body of generally annular configuration having a circumferential wall of generally circular cross-section which defines a closed external surface having a diameter which increases from a first end to a maximum at a second end of the hollow body. The hollow body has a central opening for receiving a stuffing tube and an external surface of the stuffing tube is releasably engaged to mount the hollow body on the stuffing tube. The hollow body is constructed of a rigid material, and the maximum diameter of said external surface is smaller than the predetermined internal diameter of the unshirred tubular casing. When the hollow body is arranged within a de- shirred section of the tubular casing, the tubular casing and the hollow body are mounted on the external surface of the stuffing tube, and the casing is stuffed with a mixture from the stuffing tube, the interior surface of the tubular casing slides over the generally circular external surface of the hollow body and is thereby deshirred and smoothed.
