This recipe looked AWESOME! I think, just do not use the breadcrumbs, but instead pork rinds (I think *some* kind of crumbs are necessary for "binding" the paté together) and there you go!

Karen? What do you think would work in place of bread crumbs? I thought about Parmesan because it would taste AWESOME, but I think you need the "binding" quality...now for the link!
