Enough to share or just be selfish and keep all of them for yourself. Our microwave pork rinds are produced and packaged in North Carolina, USA. The best way to learn how to cook them is to put 1/8 C on a paper plate or paper towel and set the microwave for 2 minutes on high (1/8 Cup will make a 1 C Serving and contains 9g of protein and 0 carbs). If you want to make more increase the cook time on the microwave. Watch them cook thru the window and stop the microwave when they quite puffing. This will be the optimum cooking time for your unit. Let them cool for 30 seconds to increase the crunchy texture before eating. To Bake spread on a cookie sheet and cook at 450° F for about 5 minutes, allow to cool. Why eat pork rinds 1. Low or even 0 Carbohydrates make it desirable for folks who need or desire to decrease their intake of Carbohydrates.

Microwave pork rinds provide significant amounts of protein in smaller servings when compared to most other popular snack foods.

I wrote a review the other day with the results from using the microwave, the company kindly sent a reply on trying the oven method and I am very happy with the results using the oven as directed I put them in at 450 for 8 mins and ALL of the rinds fluffed/popped which was fantastic NO wasted rinds!! From now on I will just use the oven to get them all perfectly "popped" I added a photo so show how nicely they all turned out! Between microwave and oven, for me the oven is the best more waste free way to cook them. Side note: I have a brand new high powered large microwave and no matter what way I tried (adjusting the time, paper plate/bag/towel) I just wasn’t getting the best results. The oven method as mentioned above was perfect for this first batch. I was able to cook more, I spread them out evenly and with very little room between the chips and all of the fluffed/popped to perfection!

Very tasty and very easy to make on a paper plate. Plus a serving is only a small handful (listed at 1/4 cup) so the bag lasts quite awhile. Great no carb snack.

It’s about time I actually took the time to review a product that I purchased. I’m terrible at this because it takes me so long to decide if I like something and by that time I’ve lost interest in providing feedback. Considering I’ve been ordering these pork rinds for over a year now, I think it’s time to share my experiences.
Ok, so here’s my story: A year and a half ago I started a low carb/high protein diet. I cut out most junk food and fast food and started replacing my normal foods with high protein alternatives. A year and a half later, I’m at goal weight and down 110 pounds! And yes, these guys helped. Here pig pig pig sooooo whee!
To be completely technical, the chain of protein found in pork rinds is incomplete and I did not count them in my daily protein totals. Regardless, in my search for a snacking alternative, pork rinds kept popping up (pun intended). I, who had never had pork rinds before, said to myself "Self (that’s what I call myself), how could Funyuns be healthy?" Well let me tell you folks, these ain’t Funyuns.
These magical nuggets are low carb, low calorie, crunchy fabulousness. If I’m ever craving something sweet, I just pop 8ish of these on a plate in the microwave for two minutes and drop the warm pig poofies into a plastic bag full of cinnamon and low calorie sweetener (probably cancer causing, but we shall see), toss, and nom nom nom. Perfect balance of salty, sweet, and crunch.
The only problem I have encountered thus far is that it tends to super heat the microwave. My old micowave couldn’t handle more than one batch at a time without a cool off period in between. Probably just me, who knows.
Anyway, I’m rambling on. Probably a good thing that I rarely get around to reviewing products. These are good. I searched the internet for the best quality pork rinds before settling on these and I am not disappointed. Yes, your kitchen will smell like pork, but if you don’t like the smell of bacon, there is no help for you anyway. Price is good, quality is excellent, taste is nummy, and these get five stars for helping me to lose weight (mostly) painlessly.

Yes, yumminess is a state of being and a word.
If you have a microwave and paper towels (they are greasy) you’re all set. Munch Away!

I have not been a fan of pork rinds pre-packaged and aged in the store. I am on a low carb diet and wanted a salty treat but can not eat chips or crackers. These pop up very nice, even though every batch has a couple that dont come out right. I am quit impressed that they puff up as well as they do. I can control how puffy they are by extending or decreasing microwave time.
Sometimes I use them like crackers and put cheese spread on them, not no carb then but still a low carb treat. My dog likes the ones that dont puff all the way, so we both get a treat. I am ordering my second bag of these, when the first arrived there was so much there I thought I would never eat them all, but they get habit forming.
I have seen a couple recipes for using these crushed. one was to bake chicken after coating with crushed pork rinds, get the crunch and extra flavor as though coated with higher carb items but without the carbs. Havent tried that yet but it is on the soon list.
I would highly recomend these and will be eating them as a regular late night snack, even with all these pork rind snacks I have lost over 20 lbs in 2 months.
Thank you, this makes low carb dieting much easier

there probably isn’t anything wrong with these…i just did not like them and they didn’t taste any different from the microwave ones…i cooked them many different ways…frying, baking, air frying and microwave…all rather “bleh’….surprisingly my husband loved these and he cooked the majority of them because i lost interest in them….i think he air fried them

These are fantastic quality pork rinds made fresh whenever you want them. They puff up really nicely in the microwave. Two minutes is all it takes. I did a test batch of 1 oz. The taste and texture of these pork rinds are definitely superior to the bagged ones you find in the grocery store–HOWEVER, whether or not it’s the better value is up to you. These pork rinds are much more expensive. The price per pound information (which is what I went by when I decided to try these) is WRONG. That $6.99 figure they give is right–only IF the bag was 5 pounds. It is not. It is only a 2.5 pound bag, so that means that it is actually $13.98 per pound. Per oz, that is 88 cents. I can buy a small 2.5 oz bag of pork rinds for around $1.25 at my grocery store. That works out to be around 40 cents an ounce! So it’s a trade off. This is much better quality, but whether or not it’s worth twice as much as what you’d pay for at the grocery store is up to you. Somebody needs to correct that pricing information on the page.

I decided to buy this to try and see how easy it is to make home made pork rinds. I followed the microwave instructions and pretty much none of them were cooked like a normal pork rind. Because of that, to get them to puff up like a normal pork rind, it took almost twice as long, and even then, some of the pieces did not puff up at all. Because of the extra time (I’m assuming) it was pretty hard and a lot of bits that weren’t puffed were just like biting into stone. It did still taste great, but like I said, i’d only have 1 or 2 puffed out of the 20 or so pieces put in with the suggested time.
Since the microwave turned out bad, I tried it in the deep fryer and that was MUCH better as far as puffiness and the flavor was a bit better IMO as well. Some pieces did not cook as expected though and were still very tough and stone like. I’m not sure if this is the way all of the pork rind pellets will be, since this is my first time buying, but it’s decent so far, just an annoyance. It could be bad for someone with bad/going bad teeth though.
All of this may be my inexperience though, so take it with a grain of salt. I will possibly come bad and edit the review or do another if it gets better the more I cook them.

Flavor and aroma is out of this world. Smells like a load of cured pork and after cooking they retain a porky goodness that store-bought rinds just don’t have. Ingredients are a HUGE plus (pork and salt) due to strict lifestyle.
I tried 3 cooking methods: oven, air frier, and microwave. Microwave was the most tedious. Microwave for a bit, take out the cooked ones, microwave, repeat until all were puffed. Oven took the longest and you have to do similar because of size differences in nuggets, some nuggets taking as long as 30 minutes to finally puff up. Air frier is hands down the best, fastest, and most consistent way. 10 mins at 400⁰f and they are all always perfectly puffed.
Will be buying a 10lb bag when I run out of these

These are so good and fresh! But you have to prepare them correctly. In some reviews people complained because they didn’t know how to prepare them and one person even (gasp) threw the whole bag out. Here is a foolproof method: put 1/4 cup into a clean brown paper bag. Microwave about a minute (the time depends on your microwave, of course). They should be perfectly puffed. If some have not puffed, throw ’em back in the bag and give them another few seconds. I really like these pork rinds and highly recommend them. Some serving ideas: eat them with sour cream and salsa just like tortilla chips (add shredded cheese if you like) OR try spreading cream cheese on them and add some sliced jalapeno peppers (I buy them in a jar) that you have sweetened with a little Splenda or sweetener of your choice. Low-carb heaven. Enjoy.
