Guest guest Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 Ronnie, We never had anything fancy like french cut potatoes to put in the lard kettle, we just sliced up the taters right thin. Cooking sliced potatoes in hot grease or oil will also remove any unwanted flavors from its previous use. We also never had a lard press. We put the cracklin's in a big piece of cheesecloth and two men twisted the cheesecloth as hard as they could to get the lard out. Never pinned a real pig tail on anyone. I did pin a sprig of mistletoe on the seat of a co-worker's rain coat one December. He made about three stops on his way home and it stayed on. His wife found it. He had no sense of humor if it involved him. Thought he was going to open up a can of whoop-ass on me for that one. Vaughn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
