Meat chips

Cookinero 7 Oct 2025

It may seem that meat chips are a new product, but this is not entirely true. The fact is that the idea of drying meat to extend its shelf life appeared a long time ago among both northern and southern peoples. So meat chips made from pork, beef or turkey are another fashionable name for a well-known dish.

How to cook Meat chips

Step 1

Meat chips

Place the pork slices on foil so that they do not touch each other, then place in the oven.

Step 2

After 30 minutes, reduce the temperature to 60 °C and cook the chips for another 3 hours.

Meat chips - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Absolutely! While pork is used here, thinly sliced beef (like flank steak) or even chicken breast can work. Just ensure the slices are of a uniform thickness for even cooking.
Once completely cooled, store the chips in an airtight container at room temperature. They are dried and should stay crispy for up to a week. For longer storage, see freezing instructions.
Yes, these homemade meat chips are an excellent keto-friendly and low-carb snack, as they contain no added sugars or carbohydrates, just pure protein and fat.
A baking rack is actually a great alternative! Placing the slices on a rack set over a baking sheet allows for better air circulation, which can help them dry out and become even crispier.
They are a perfect standalone snack. You can also crumble them over a salad for a bacon-like crunch, use them as a garnish for soups, or serve them with a dip like guacamole or sour cream.
Yes, you can freeze them for up to 3 months. Place them in a single layer in a freezer-safe bag, remove as much air as possible, and seal. They can be thawed at room temperature and will remain crispy.
The most common issue is slices that are too thick. Aim for very thin, uniform slices. Also, ensure your oven temperature is accurate; an oven thermometer can help verify this. The full cooking time is crucial for removing all moisture.
