This made me laugh for some reason.

Here's a clean webpage and a topic that just doesn't seem often discussed on the web.

Mmmm cracklins. what exactly is that again?

About as nasty as pigsfeet, no one talks about it adex because its disgusting!

mmmmmmmm bacon

OMG CRACKLINS!!!

I dated this girl in college, her family owned a farm just outside of Gainesville. One weekend (I guess after they slaughtered some hogs) they had a big ass cookout, and they made a whole mess of these. They're like pork rinds, only better.

After the cookout, we had sex in the barn. Love them country girls

Damn Masteen you hit the jackpot there

So the hoggin paid off all the way around?

They are real "pork rinds." The Pork Rinds you buy in the store are suppose to taste like these... some are closer than others and some are actually closer to this but with a lot of processing.

I remember growing up one of my best friends moms worked at a packing plant. She was originally from LA and knew all about cookin' some cracklins and use bring big boxes of extra skin home to make'em up every month or so... mmmm mmmm good. We didn't need any popcorn or chips at his house, we had fried pigskin with nice hardy layer of fat on it. Grab a bowl full of those and a Coca-Cola and we were ready for some football!

Man... reading that makes me want a big ole mess of 'em right now!

PS - Cank, I bet you've had some Cracklin' haven't ya?

Did you guys bother reading the whole article?

The guy has a rather charming prose.

Why eat pork when there's perfectly good pig by-products a-waistin

I can hear the conversation now:

'Hey, let's fry the pig fat in that liquid fat over there'

'could work'

it's times like this that make me hate the fact that insurance is a pool of people

I read some but then I got a hankerin for some bacon.

The whole site is rife with southern charm.

Hey, I'm prosing right now!

This story was full of southern charm

The thought crossed my mind that voyeurism isn't a nice activity. But the devil won.

That webpage basically scream redneck. But hell, at least hes not living in a trailer, could be worse .

Apart from that, my arteries cried out just reading about that "food"

It's bad for your heart, but good for the soul.

Pork rinds are great, cracklins are another matter unless they're fresh. The ones they sell in the stores are totally nasty.

Imagine bagged, deep fried bacon fat that's sat on a shelf for 3-4 months.

I imagine it's just as nasty as the fresh off the bone/meat/anythingbutfat

Bag it, don't bag it, think about it being bagged, I imagine it would be awful

Think of fried salt pork with the skin on, or very thick bacon. It's pretty good stuff hot and fresh. About 2 hours later the skin turns to leather as the grease soaks into it, the fatty part is a lot like a firm sponge soaked in rancid bacon grease.

Almost the whole Alabama side of my family in my grampa's generation died of heart disease. They ate everything but the squeal.

I always wondered what a "juke joint" was.... and now I kinda know.. kinda...

Cute site though

Now it's time to head outside and cook the cracklins. Believe me–you don't want to cook cracklins on your kitchen stove.


It'll heat up your kitchen something awful.
It makes a terrible mess.
Your house will smell like cracklins for months.
You might burn down your house

word

Cracklin's are a natural aphrodisiac. Masteen got some hot slippery bacon loving.
