    Rendering Tallow

    ...tissue as posible. It's not absolutely necessary to get all of the connective tissue as it will render out and become part of the cracklins. Into the slow cooker on low for about 6 hours. Six hours later it's time to strain through with a fine strainer lined with cheese cloth. Then...

    Thank you. BTW, you might google the Cajun Boudin Trail, boudin and cracklins run right along with I-10! Sure would be some nice rest stops on a trip....LOL BTW you should try Comeaux's grocery in Lafayette! Normally with fresh pork its 4 or 5 to 1. !0 lbs of boudin is a healthy 2 lbs of liver...

    Cracklins! by Foamheart

    ...then evaporate.  If you are making lard you soften the pieces then squeeze the fat out. Usually using a family press. Then later you make cracklins with the squeezed pieces. To make cracklins though requires a double fry or they will be so hard they with break your teeth. Its explained in...

    First smoked pork butt

    Crackling take time. My wife does it. Plain and easy. Just bake in oven overnight at 200, than you deep get. Consult with the other guys here though. When I didba suckling pig, they mentioned taking the skin after smoking and deep frying.

    I will have to keep on the lookout for a hand grinder like that one. Definitely could sneak that in the RV. I definitely don't want to go into commercial sausage making, but would be nice to be able to do a few special things on occasion. Thanks for the google hint, I have been in the Golden...

    First smoked pork butt

    A picnic roast isn't so much for pulled pork as-is. If you cut the skin off and trim it, you'll be in good shape. Don't throw away that skin though. You can make awesome pork cracklins from those to snack on while you roll smoke on that shoulder!

    Pork Butt Pricing?

    ...Cary. Boneless pork Cushion Picnic will run $1.56 per lb. on sale right now at $1.38 per lb. It will have skin on it, but  I love making cracklins and pork rinds so I don't mind getting any of it skin-on. I will save it in the freezer for later. Better deal and price for just about any cook...

    1st Attempt at Whole Hog

    Pork skin is actually much different than poultry skin. It crisps up just fine. However, all you need is a vat of grease and some heat and you can make cracklins!!
