Pig ears

mixx,
what i have done is left the skin on while smoking and then when it was done removed the skin, took the fat off and dried in a food dehydrator with no ill effects to my 2 greyhounds.
here is a good recipe that moose and corvette love if you want to try it

1 lb chicken livers
1 cup corn meal
4 eggs
pinch of salt

whiz the ingredients in a blender till smooth
put in greased 8 x 12 pan
bake at 350 for about 30 mins or until a tooth pick comes out clean

it should work ok for puppies as greyhounds have kind of sensative stomaches

hope this helps you

ps now you know how we came up with our company and team name

I have cut it off, I was thinking of soaking it in some water with a little bit of meat cure and a couple drop of worechester sauce over night smoking it and then drying it out.

sounds like it should work ok to me. what kind of puppies do you have??

I know of a few teams that smoke their shoulders leaving the skin on and that a some point decide to remove the skin by peeling it off (comes off easily enough after some cooking) then leave the skin in the smoker to get more smoke.

Jack, your stuff sounds good...if you're a dog
