    Chicharron Tacos

    Anyone have any chicharron breakfast taco recipes? These are my favorite by far, and I'd love to know how to make them.

        A wildly popular Latin snack food throughout the Americas, chicharrones are made from pork belly that has been cooked for a long time with the skin on, and contains a little meat (what we think of as pork rinds in the United States). Though usually eaten as a crispy snack, they also make a tasty taco filling when heated in a sauce until softened and chewy. The most unusual chicharrones are those made from the whole pork skin fried in one piece—they’re about four feet long by two feet wide and resemble some dried prehistoric animal. You’ll see them for sale on weekends along the highways in areas of Mexico where there are a lot of pigs, sometimes next to a huge pot of pork fat boiling over an open fire. They’re almost always made to order; you stop and buy a piece or buy the whole thing. I’m guessing you only see them by the highways because they are so enormous you need a car or pickup truck to get one home.

          "The most unusual chicharrones are those made from the whole pork skin fried in one piece... " That's how it's supposed to be done! Every Easter/Christmas, we'd slaughter a pig and grandma's duty was the chicharron. Can still smell it!

          OP, this is pretty close to the way momma makes it.

          Chicharrones con Huevos roughly translates to “pork rinds with eggs”. Though, I thought I’d spice it up a little bit by adding tomato, avocado, jalapenos, and of course cilantro to the mix. While ketoproof coffee is a fantastic way to get fats into your diet, it’s not all that nutritionally dense. There’s tons of micronutrients […]

            I'm gonna have to try both recipes! I stop at a little taqueria at least once a week to grab me one on my way to work, or on my way home from work. I'll take them over anything else, including fresh barbacoa.

                    A can of rotel and a small can of tomatoes sauce bring to a boil and add pork skins until they begin to soften. Add to corn tortillias. I am sure the taco shops cook them down in enchilada sauce.
