Being a northerner, I love the thick cut maple bacon.
After living in the south for a few years I discovered Chicharrón. It looks a little gross but is very good. Kindof like a monster piece of bacon with extra fat.
you need to talk to the person that explained a Chicharrón like that, it really is pig skin that cuts about an inch down and deep fried. A lot of times the leave the hair...
BTW I'm soo going to steal that one for my next poor sucker.
But it sure is good...

Yep, we cook Chicharron when we dice up a pig and deep fry. Chicharron is nothing more than Cuban/Hispanic pork rinds. Tasty, but not bacon.

Maybe I am getting different Chicharron than you guys. I eat it at a Columbian diner. They have the skin, than a layer of fat and then a layer of meat. I don't eat the skin part anymore, after I got a

You were the lucky one to find the pig nip and you didnt celebrate. Usually if you find one you get a free plate of rocky mountain oysters!!!!

They usually cut into the pig and skin it, and fry the skin and whatever else comes with it, (fat). And yes we are talking the same thing. Down around the belly they usually go deeper like an inch or so then fry that. Whatever it is they grab. It is good, but skin.

We used to get Chicharron burritos from a little hole in the wall place by my mom's house. Those things were great but they should have came with a warning label.

Go in there and ask for tripas or lengua!
