ok... idk what you have to make them out of we use pork bellies... but cut into pieces a little bigger than what you want them to end up... and the work begins.... bring the grease up to about 325 and cook for 30 mins... see work... stirring constantly... we have a paddle on a electric motor... you may have to just work on the upper arms... until they begin to float. when they do take them out and cool well.... we put them in the cooler... they are going to be soft but don't be alarmed.... after they cool... bring grease up to 325. put cracklins back in.... the temperature of the grease will drop... when it gets back up to 325. remove, salt or season, and enjoy

man we cooked cracklins all day for the superbowl, we basically did everything wooduck said but we only coat the bottom of the pot with grease they dont come out soft, but theres several different ways to do it, just make sure u have some buddies to help stir cause that'll wear you out
