These pork cracklings from Epic a meat purveyor out of Texas were touted as artisanal. They were in fact a very nice crackling reminiscent of ones you would get down south.
I found the maple bacon flavoring to be superfluous, why add a bacon flavor to fried pork fat and skin?? The cracklings would have been better if just plain. They were crunchy with just the right ratio of fat to meat to skin that you like in a crackling. The bag was a bit powdery with each piece coated with pork dust which was mildly off-putting. Alex does not like cracklings while typically I enjoy them quite a bit. I rate these a mediocre 6 out of 10.
