Looks good! Steak is on my plate for supper! 

I haven’t had homemade potatoes chips since I lived at home. We made them all the time. Your look fabulous ! 

Home made chips! Terrific! What kind of oil do you use to fry them in? Do you pan fry them? An air fryer? For an animal-based food crunch, I like pork skins, which is the only pork I eat. They are sometimes labeled as chicharrones. They are fried in their own endogenous lard (manteca) instead of the cottonseed oil in which most commercial potato chips are fried. I want to try making my own pork cracklins’ in a large wok, outside, come BBQ season. Lately, I’ve been experimenting with sweet potato chips and aerosolized coconut oil in my air fryer. I haven’t found a sweet spot of time or temperature yet. I think I will next try to dehydrate them before cooking them. And in my case, I would have this as a an occasional treat, not something I would eat more than once or twice a month. 

yum! 

Chips look professional 

chris, just canola oil in the fryer.  

The chips are beautiful! 

very nice  

Yummy, yummy!! 

those chips came out great  

Oh wow! Looks SO delicious!  

Ok perfect chips. I’m impressed. Temp? And amount of time? 

kaylinrenee wifey i just use my fryer at its highest temp, 400°f and when theyre done they stop crackling/popping so i don't time them, i listen to them. sometimes i pull them early because i like them softer 

Cool. Do you pay yours dry before frying? 

I rinse them in cold water. Is pat them dry and drop them in individually or they stick 

Thanks k!!
