In the old days, you never wasted a single piece of the pig. These days the average customer does not consume every piece of the hog, but the hock is not one to be missed!
The Hock is the lower leg of the hog. As much bone as there is meat, this cut is about as tough as it gets. HOWEVER, it is also the most flavorful. These Hocks have no cure or extra flavor, just the wonderful flavor of our hogs.
