Title: Microwave Pork Rinds - The Best Pork Rinds I've Ever Tasted
Post by: mouseissue on August 20, 2010, 11:38:11 AM
I recently received microwave pork rinds sold under the Lowrey's brand.
They came packaged much like microwave popcorn and they were very good.

But I just found what I think are the best microwave pork rinds you could find anywhere!!!

These pork rinds are sold in 1 lb. resealable packages.

I spread out 2 oz. on a dinner size paper plate, set my nuke box for 2 minutes, and hit start.
Remember, that microwave ovens vary so you want to consider your first batch a test batch.

A couple of minutes later... THE BEST DOGGONE PORK RINDS THAT I HAVE EVER TASTED!!!
And much less salty than the Lowrey's brand I previously reviewed.
They also have a more "natural" rind flavor so I think they would work better in recipes.

They can be seasoned by spraying them lightly with oil, put desired seasonings in a plastic bag, put the rinds in the bag, and shake until coated (for about 10 seconds).

You can find them here:  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002O5QWD8/ref=oss_product (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002O5QWD8/ref=oss_product)

You can also fry these rinds if you like them more oily.
Frying instructions and other information about them can be found at the manufacturer's website (Julia's Pantry):

I found the shipping MUCH cheaper at Amazon.com especially if you want to order multiple packages.

Now, I'm gonna go back to the kitchen and make me another batch... MMMMMM!!!!

Hi snobles!  :)

No, it doesn't.

These pork rinds are uncooked in what's called "pellet" form.
They are very hard and brittle.
But after they've been in the microwave, they "plump" up into the pork rinds you see in bags on store shelves.
