Pure Golden Fat & Crispy Cracklings in the Perfect Freezer Stash
Chicken skin is one of the most prized culinary cuts for nose-to-tail cooking, keto/carnivore lifestyles, and ancestral diets. Our 10 lb Pasture-Raised Chicken Skin Bundle makes it easy to keep a steady supply of premium, unadulterated animal fat on hand without overwhelming your freezer.
Because our birds live outdoors on pasture—foraging naturally for bugs, seeds, and fresh greens—their fat possesses a rich, clean flavor and a superior nutrient profile compared to commercial poultry fat.
Packed into 10 individual 1-lb vacuum-sealed pouches, you can easily thaw one or two packs at a time whenever you need fresh cooking fat or a batch of savory, crunchy snacks.
Why Keep a 10-Pack Stash in Your Freezer?
-
Homemade Golden Schmaltz: Slowly render down the skins on your stovetop to yield jars of clarified liquid fat. Schmaltz has a high smoke point and incredible savory depth—making it our absolute favorite fat for roasting root vegetables, frying eggs, pan-searing meats, or sautéing greens.
-
Crisp, Zero-Carb Cracklings (Gribenes): Don’t discard the skins after rendering! Fry them until deeply golden and shatteringly crisp, then toss with coarse sea salt for an irresistible high-protein, zero-carb crunch.
-
Wrap & Roast Lean Cuts: Drape seasoned skins over boneless skinless chicken breasts, turkey roasts, or pork tenderloins before roasting to continuously baste the meat and create a golden, crispy crust.
-
Rich, Gelatinous Bone Broth: Toss a pack into your next stock pot to impart rich body, healthy fats, and savory depth.
Quick Stovetop Rendering Guide:
-
Dice: Cut thawed chicken skins into 1-inch squares.
-
Start Low: Add skins to a wide skillet or Dutch oven over low heat with 2–3 tablespoons of water to prevent sticking while the fat begins to melt.
-
Render: Let the water simmer away as the fat slowly renders out (about 20–30 minutes), stirring occasionally.
-
Strain: Once the fat is clear and bubbly and the skin pieces are golden and crispy, pour the fat through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean glass jar.
-
Store: Keep your jar of golden schmaltz in the refrigerator for daily cooking, and enjoy the salted, hot cracklings right away!
