homemade cracklins?

[breambuster]

I have some boston butt roasts, i plan on trimming the fat off the bottom to make cracklins. Can anyone.tell me process. Ive watched some youtube videos but want a less complicated process. Was thinking about just deep frying them in some vegatable oil?

When I make cracklins with my neighbor we use back fat. Put a quart bottle of cooking oil in a black iron pot and fry them for an couple hours on a pretty low heat. We take them out when they float and spread them in one thin layer on a newspaper covered table. Once they are cooled we get the grease hot again add a little baking soda and throw 1/4 of the craklins back in the grease till they blister. Take them out and season them with salt and a little cayenne.
