Pig ears??? :-o

From: Katra
Lynn gets stuff from the food bank, and it's not unusual for them to put
stuff in the boxes that nobody wants...
She gifted me with a package of frozen and cleaned pig ears this
morning! :-P Something I would NEVER buy! I asked her why she did not
just cook them up for her rottweilers and she said that since I do eat
pigs feet, she thought I might be interested.
Thanks. <bleah!>
So, now I have this package of about 1 lb. of frozen pig ears.
I'm thinking about just simmering them until they are soft, then letting
them cool and offering them to my own dogs. I know that my border collie
would probably be delighted. ;-) All 4 dogs enjoy the smoked/dried pig
ear chewies from the feed store, as well as the freeze dried pig snouts.
Anyone else know what these are good for?
TIA,
K.

RESPONE: No ideal about how to use pig ears and I doubt people who
receive them know what to do with it either.
DAMN shame this is the crap those food banks are giving to people who
are in need especially with children.
