The Snack Drawer Savior You’ve Been Waiting For...


If you’ve got kids… you’ve got snack problems. It comes with the job lol.


They walk in the door after school acting like they haven’t eaten since the Clinton administration.


Or the grandkids show up, kick their shoes off, and make a direct line for the snack drawer like there’s a prize at the bottom.


And as the responsible adult in the house, you’re stuck trying to find snacks that won’t leave them bouncing off the walls or full of junk you’d rather not Google at 9PM.


But the grocery store snack aisle? A minefield. Vegetable oils, fillers, fake flavor dust… it’s chaos in a bag.


This is exactly why our pasture raised chicken skins have become a fan favorite.


Seriously though.... Our customer, Emily says her son devours these as soon as they are cooled.



Why Chicken Skins Are the Ultimate Kid-Friendly Snack


These things crisp up like the best chip you’ve ever had, except they’re actually made of real food.


No mystery ingredients. No seed oils. No filler. Just honest-to-goodness chicken skin from chickens raised outdoors the way nature intended.


  • They’re crunchy.

  • They’re savory.

  • They’re loaded with protein and healthy fat.

  • And they keep the kids full long enough for you to finish a thought, which is really the ultimate win.


Plus you get to season them however you want:


  • Ranch for the kids

  • BBQ for the big kids

  • Taco for busy weeknights

  • Simple salt and pepper for everyday snacking


It’s the kind of snack that works for toddlers, teens, and full-grown adults who “aren’t snackers” (lies).







Grandkids Approved


Grandparents especially love these because they’re the perfect alternative to store-bought chips.


When your grandkids raid the kitchen the second they arrive, you can hand these over without the guilt and feel good about feeding them something real.


They taste amazing. They satisfy the snack cravings. And they don’t come with that post-snack regret you get from the usual stuff.


Or a phone call from your daughter at 7PM questioning what you gave her kids today because they are in full meltdown mode in the background.





How to Make Crispy Chicken Skins at Home


Alright, let’s talk cooking. If you want to turn our packaged chicken skins into crunchy perfection, here’s the go-to method.



Crispy Chicken Skins (Homemade “Chicharrones”)


Ingredients:




Instructions:


  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Hot and fast is the key to that perfect crunch.

  2. Lay the chicken skins flat on a parchment-lined baking sheet. The flatter they are, the crispier they get.

  3. Season lightly with salt and your favorite blend. Don’t go too heavy — the skins bring great flavor on their own.

  4. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through. You’re looking for golden, bubbly, crispy edges.

  5. Remove and let cool. They’ll crisp even more as they cool down.

  6. Snack immediately… or hide them from the kids and eat them yourself.(No judgment.)



These store great in an airtight container for a couple of days, though honestly… snacks this good rarely make it that long.







A Snack Your Family Will Actually Love


Whether you’re trying to upgrade the snack drawer, pack cleaner lunchbox options, or just survive after-school hunger hour, chicken skins are a game changer.


  • Real food.

  • Crazy good crunch.

  • Kid-approved.

  • Grandparent-endorsed.


And an easy win for busy families who want better options.
