In Case There's Not Enough Fat in Your Life

in Miami recently I stopped at a grocery store and found the most incredible stuff in the meat case. Pig's feet, for one, and then, shown in the photo here, is actual fatback, which I've never seen in California in all my life. I believe you tend to cook this with things like turnip greens, but my soul food bona fides are pretty weak. Pure fat! Take *that*, California.

Oh hell yeah! Fry some up with some collards greens? Yup yup. That's some serious down-home eatin'. Also, I think you can fry up pieces for your own homemade pork rinds or chicharones...I think that's what you call them.

So, did you buy any? Hee hee.
