Extreme Pork Scratchings: Dare to Try This at Home? 

This video has potentially saved me $1000’s of Australian dollars. I usually buy about 1kg of scratchings for about $130. I love the stuff 😊 Thanks for the video. Your soothing English accent and the sound of the pork frying away in the background had me smiling from start to end. 1kg of pig skin has just gone on the shopping list 😊 Might even get an English ale to celebrate 🥳 Thank you 🙏

Just got me a slab of pork skin tonight from the supermarket will be making them tomorrow. They're pretty good for you as all protein no carbs excellent for me as a snack. Cheers Rik.

Born and raised in Midwest US and we called them pork rinds. Been living in Costa Rica over 30 years and they are called Chicharrones. Absolutely love them!

Oh, a UK pub delicacy Rik....I used to eat bags of pork scratchings in my younger days, a late friend of mine called them " Chickens itchings".... don't ask me why but he did 😂... Best Neil

I really liked your video, well explained with the why's for every step. Well done. Regards to you.

Have never tried cooking them this way, will give it a go, thanks.

Great Video! thanks. I buy pork bellies from Makro and have to take the skin off for making bacon. this gives me something to do with the skins. Thanks. from Ban Chang

When I was a kid, every now and then my Grand Dad would render down a huge cauldron of lard. All the little bits left over at the bottom we called 'cracklins'...they were delicious :) These look very good...similar to the Mexican chicharrónes.

I love your cooking and will try this method but i have seen chefs just stick them in the oven and they crisp up

Man I'd love to make these but it'd be a bridge too far healthwise and the wife would lose it. Never seen them made, was great to watch them, was about as close as I can get. Used to be able to buy pork skin at Morrisons and always picked some up when we had a pork shoulder for extra crackling

has he had a stroke doe?

har my only weekness i buy the original black country ones of Amazon. thanks rik often wondered how they make em , bet they taste amazing fresh like that ,cheers 😋👍

Cracklins in the states loooooooove me some ...never ever thought i could fry my own!

Hmong doesn't have a name for our version, we just know its fried pork skin haha

Now we are talking Rik after a few beers this is what is prescribed by the Doctor

Here in Brazil we call it Torresmo.

Man they look so good

I have been making these in my air fryer for about 5 years any meat gets cut off for dog treat. I can’t buy enough to keep up with family demand everyone loves it😊😊

Don't forget to keep the fat. Great for eggs, roast potatoes etc!

Love them the bring back memories. We used to get em from a local shop in Scunthorpe when we where teenagers, we used to say they where fresh from the abattoir, some of them where huge and curly we used to call those ones the tails, some where hairy we didn't care they where delicious.

Superb indeed Rik! As a recent subscriber to your channel, I'm still coming across great historic videos. I'm sure I'm not the only newish subscriber or watcher of your great videos, and some may not be aware of some of your older ones. Have you considered re-releasing them on here as modern ones; not to fool anyone to think that they're brand new but just draw your new viewers to some of your historic videos which some may not be aware of and appreciate?

Perfect exact recipy ibwas looking for !❤ Was missing specifically these type of scratchings with some fat on it... Americans, mexicans and Thailand's people doijg it very different way and only with skin and no fat.

The lard is great for fried bread and cooking your eggs, mushrooms, sausages etc for breakfast.

I buy 1kg bags expensive tho I’d love to try this just don’t even know where to start with buying pork skin

The best snack ever invented I pour the rendering off for other cooking

Done in air fryer no splattering and fat renders down really nicely. I cook it dry

Amazing! I can't wait to try this. I spend so much on pork scratchings so if it works I'll save so much money

😊 I can smell these through the screen 😊 Of all your videos this the only one I actually know how to and make often. Grew up on a farm, my Dad had me stirring the pan at a young age for our favorite snack. Made me smile. Same exact method.

Legit, no joke, that crunch is heavenly. Pork scratchings must be so nice when they're freshly made and a little warm.

😮😋 Yummy ❤ Thank You 😊

Just found your channel and you are making so much of my husband's favourite foods! I can't wait to make these pork scratching for him he absolutely loves these,the first time I've seen anyone make them, thankyou so much 👍

Good work champ

Growing up we always had a bag of pork rinds in the house. While visiting the Philippines I had a homemade version that still had a layer of fat on them and it was the best thing ever. I thought it was just a Filipino thing! Neat to see that other cultures have also discovered the best snack ever invented.

My wife being a bit of a carnivore will really love these. Must get to a butchers soon.

Very nice. The same as your other Aussie subscriber, I spend a fortune every shop, even trying to find lower price products. This is going to save me a lot of money.

Yummy, Yummy, Yummy! Right in my tummy! 👍

Fantastic! Thanks for this easy and simple way of making pork scratchings! I unfortunately burnt the first batch a bit, but will lower the heat in the future and I am sure that it will work perfectly! Amazing flavour and so simple to make.... ❤😊

Here in the philipines we call it chicharon.
