Today I am making a quick and easy version of crispy chicharrones. These are golden brown crispy fried pieces of pork belly. Growing up my family would boil and fry these using a large disc outside. Making them at home and starting the process using the Instant Pot makes it a lot more convenient.

how many hours would you say to boil the pork belly if you’re boiling it on the stove?
Gonna make this tonight and soak some in hot sauce when finished 😋
Looks yummy. I'm also going to give it a try. If I had to give any comment I would say when you are cutting the pork belly to 1" thick slices, for the love of your fingers please cut with your off hand on the section you are cutting off of. Not the section you are cutting off.
Is there an actual recipe you have somewhere?
Ok, so you don't tell us how long you fry them and you don't tell us how long in the pressure cooker. What you do tell us, it is fryed porkbelly. What a waste of time ~
Girl I see you with the cutco knife…. So weird that I used to work for them lmaoo
Thank you for this video, I love the taste of chicharron😍… I use to make the haitian way we usually do they same but we boil it with parley, and a little lime juice, or sour orange juice with water and salt 🧂 that’s all and I think both of them taste wonderful 🤩
Ok so maybe someone here can answer this question. I just recently got addicted to these things. I get them from a local Mexican store. Absolutely amazing. My question is what to do with the ones that aren't eaten? Like how long will they stay out at room temp? Most of the ones I get have a good bit of meat and fat on them. My favorite part and I asked in a forum and some people say they can stay out at room temp for a couple days and others say to keep them In the fridge. The ones who say to keep them out say that putting them in the fridge will ruin them and only thing they will be good for after that is a salsa Verde. It's just strange to me because I wouldn't leave a pork chop out over night but these are ok to do so? Lol. Anyway any suggestions would be awesome
On the stove top how long do I boil. Because I don’t have a instapot
Where did you buy the pork belly meat
I never had one 😢
Look so good
You love it..but your heart doesn't.
That knife though! where can I get that????
Looking so damn good. So could munch through those like a voracious carnivore! Thank you for sharing such a great recipe and method ❤
For over night do cut it too?
One question why you didn't show the battering process we don't know if you use flour a little cornstarch with your flower a little cornmeal we're lost in the sauce sweetness good video though God bless
Trying it today
Can I use air fryer?!
Porkbelly without the skinpart ?!
Short way to Heart Atac
Normally you’d use the fat or lard to fry the meat in but that works too.
I would use the pork broth for rice dressing or what we, in the deep south, call Dirty Rice. Popeye's chicken has this, tho I'm not sure what they call it. I usually use chicken, pork, crumbled, browned ground beef, and cooked, finely chopped, chicken livers.
Thank you! Those were great instructions!
OMG!!! This takes me back to my grandma’s kitchen. She made chicharonnes after they slaughtered a pig. She won’t make homemade flour tortillas and wrap it around the chicharrone. Nothing like it 🥰
There’s no skin niña🤦🏽♂️
Thank you so much for uploading this video, Now I don't have to go to the Puerto Rican restaurant to buy. 💯🧂🍴🔪❤ I'm a new subscriber now 😁
OMG!!! Just another recipe to give us a heart attack lol. But I digress the Filipinos call it Lechon *^^
That looks good! You just kicked me um…to the delish zone! Always ready to taste new dishes! Yummy, yum! Waving to you from south Georgia-land of best Peaches, boiled Peanuts, & Vidalia onions! 🥘🍲🦞🥧🌭🌮🍕🍟🫔🍿🥗🦐🍝🍠☕🫖🗽🚑🚒🚓
Can you please share what you use the pork broth for? I never know what to make with pork broth and I hate throwing all that flavorful broth down the drain. Thank you. I'm making chicharrones today! 😋
Looks delicious but so fattening, I can't bring myself to feed this to my husband just because of the lard but it doesn't mean I can't daydream about enjoying these chicharones with a corn tortilla and some very very spicy hot salsa!
I need a cold beer with that chicharrones.
Those look amazing!! 🤤 I never thought about making my own, but this recipe has inspired me! My hubby is gonna be happy!!
OMG!! WHEN I HEARD THAT CRUNCH MY MOUTH WATERED!! GIIRRLLLLL THANK YOU 🥰
Wow se ve delicioso y sobre todo crujiente,
You have an easier way to make chicken- fried- potatoe wedges
So crunchy
It's NOT Chicharrons without the skin!!
I need this on my life!! Looks sooo delicious 😋 😍
This looks great. Yummy
I always have pork belly in the freezer. I am going to make this.
I make something similar to this. It tastes good. Thanks for your recipe version. 🌹
Was it just a hot sauce with lime and onion on your taco at the end? Glad your giving me more excuses to use my pressure cooker, thanks!
👍🤤I need to try this. 🤗♥️♥️♥️♥️
Yummy
They look so good and delicious. I haven’t been able to find whole slabs of pork belly in my area; it’s hard to find small pieces, too. If I manage to hunt down that unicorn, I want to try your recipe. Thanks so much for sharing!
Omg! I’m gonna have to sign up for a heart transplant before I make these. 🤣
Beautiful
These are the kind I love, crunchy, yet soft and a little meat on them. Delicious yet hard to find
Ugh I love your channel but I'm always hungry 😫
