Any new places doing cracklins in NOLA?

This isn't a bash... I went to Cleaver & Co. last weekend and I wasn't a fan of their new style of cracklins. They used to be fairly small and just salted, not spiced. The new ones were spiced, but my biggest issue was they were very large and there was a good bit of un-rendered fat in the center.
Any new places doing cracklins these days? I could make my own, but would rather just go buy a half-pound somewhere. TIA

Danny and Bonnie's on the Wank is my go-to. 2205 Belle Chase Highway.

I'm interested in this subject as well.
Someone told me that Chris' in Lakeview does them on Saturday's, but I haven't tried them yet.

The ones at Shank don't look too bad. Never had them though.

Sounds like you got legit cracklins. Their 'new style' is what cracklins have always been.

The ones at Toup's are pretty damn good. Dipped in that chicken liver mousse and they are incredible.

I believe Blue Oak does them.

This is something I've found it's best to wait till I go to Laffy for a boudin run, i'll just pick up some while I am there. Having them every few months make it a special treat for me.
Went to Billy's in Lafayette (well the exit pass Lafayette) this past Sunday as I was in town for a baptism, picked up 20 lbs of boudin and a pound of cracklins, split both with a buddy of mine.

Not in NOLA, but Wayne Jacobs smokehouse in Laplace has em on certain days of the week.
The pork rinds and pimento cheese at Co Burger are damn tasty, though not cracklings.

Bumping this because someone told me that Tre Bons Meats out in River Ridge does Cracklins. Anyone try them?

Chris's Specialty Meat market in Lakeview is always pimping cracklins.
