FRIED PORK SKINS AKA CHICHARRON
We use our smoker to make bacon. Once the bacon is smoked you cut the skin away from the pork belly. I can't stand to waste all of that porky goodness so I learned to make fried pork skins aka pork rinds aka chicharrones. Whatever you call them, they are good. If you put the skin back into the smoker to dehydrate you can get some...

Steps:
- 1. Put the skin on the chopping board with the fat side up, try to remove all the fat you can, cut the clean skin into strips about 1/2 x 1 1/2.
- 2. Cook the strips in boiling water for 10 min and then strain, let them cool a bit.
- 3. Spread them in a single layer in a dehydrator or on a rack in an oven at 125F for at least 12 hrs or until dried (it should be hard). OR us your smoker. :) At this point you can cook immediately or save for another time.
- 4. Prepare a pot with oil at 350F
- 5. Add the dried skins, they will puff very fast so be ready with a slotted spoon and a plate to drain them on. Remove from the oil and place them on paper to drain.
- 6. Sprinkle with sea salt, bbq seasonings, your favorite rub, herbs, whatever.

CHICHARRONES TACOS
A wildly popular Latin snack food throughout the Americas, chicharrones are made from pork belly that has been cooked for a long time with the skin on, and contains a little meat (what we think of as pork rinds in the United States). Though usually eaten as a crispy snack, they also make a tasty taco filling when heated in a sauce until softened and chewy. The most unusual chicharrones are those made from the whole pork skin fried in one piece-they're about four feet long by two feet wide and resemble some dried prehistoric animal. You'll see them for sale on weekends along the highways in areas of Mexico where there are a lot of pigs, sometimes next to a huge pot of pork fat boiling over an open fire. They're almost always made to order; you stop and buy a piece or buy the whole thing. I'm guessing you only see them by the highways because they are so enormous you need a car or pickup truck to get one home.

Steps:
- In a large, heavy skillet, add the pork fat and salt and cook over low heat until the pork has fully rendered its fat and the pieces are puffed and airy, about 40 minutes. Transfer the chicharrones to a large saucepan, add the tomatillo salsa, and cook on medium-high heat until the sauce is almost dried up and coats the chicharrones, about 9 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and serve immediately, or keep warm in the pan until ready to serve.
- To serve, lay the tortillas side by side, open face and overlapping on a platter. Divide the filling equally between the tortillas and top with garnish and salsa. Grab, fold, and eat right away. Or build your own taco: lay a tortilla, open face, in one hand. Spoon on some filling, top with garnish and salsa, fold, and eat right away.

- Procure Some Pork Skin. Depending on where you live, this might be the hardest part of making chicharrónes: you need to procure 1 1/2 to 2 pounds of fresh pork skin.
- Cut the pork skin into large pieces. The easiest way to cook chicharrónes is to roast the pork skin in large-ish pieces—about 6 inches long by 4 inches wide is a good manageable size.
- Roast the pork skin. Before you deep-fry the pork skin into puffy chicharrones, you need to roast it for a few hours at low heat to dry it out. Extra fat will drip out of the skin during this phase, so arrange the pork skin on a wire rack set inside a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet to catch the drips.
- Heat the frying oil. Traditionally, chicharrónes are fried in lard, but that can get a little stinky to do at home, so you can use canola, grapeseed oil, or another vegetable oil with a high smoke point instead.
- Deep-fry the chicharrónes. Add a piece of your roasted pork skin and watch it closely. It should start to bubble and pop and expand within 30 seconds—if it doesn't, your oil isn't hot enough.
- Season and Enjoy. As soon as the chicharrónes are finished frying, sprinkle them with salt. You can also sprinkle them with some chile powder or lime zest too if you want—but salt is the most essential ingredient.
