Pork scratchings dog treat recipe
Pork dog treats
The truth is homemade dog treats are a whole lot healthier, cheaper and tastier than the treats you buy in pet shops. Pork scratchings are a great dog treat. So easy to make, no cooking skills required and cheap as chips. I buy the pork rind from Morrisons supermarket for about 50p – 80p a pack, best times to find them at my store is Saturdays. But if you know a nice butcher and are friendly then you could get it for free.
I made this last week and wasn’t sure how the dogs would like it but after giving a piece to my own dog I knew I was onto a winner.
Right, let’s do this thing!
Step by step guide!
One packet of pork rind
You can slice it into strips but I don’t bother. Place pork belly in oven tray and preheat oven to 180c. Make sure the skin is well scored so the heat can get into the skin and blister it, otherwise the skin will split from the fat underneath and it wont blister.
After about 45 mins take it out the oven and leave to cool
Smash up into bits. That’s it!
