    Sparerib and bellie trimmings

    I have 5 lbs of trimmings from some spares i did last weekend, and 3-5 lbs of trimming from some bellies, any thought as to what I could do with all of this aside from sausage.  I was thinking I could braise it, or use it in a pork stew?  Thoughts or recipe suggestions greatly appreciated.
