Smoked Ham Hocks (0.9-1.2kg)

Smoked ham hocks are the ankle portion of the pig's hind leg, cured and smoked to develop rich, deep flavors. These meaty, collagen-rich cuts are essential for traditional Southern and European cooking, providing incredible flavour and body to dishes.

Flavour Profile: Intensely smoky, salty, and meaty with rich, gelatinous texture when cooked. The bone and connective tissue release natural gelatin, creating silky, full-bodied broths and sauces.

How to Use:

• Simmer in beans, lentils, or split pea soup
• Add to collard greens or cabbage
• Use in stews and braised dishes
• Make rich stocks and broths
• Slow-cook with vegetables

Requires long, slow cooking to break down tough connective tissue. The result is incredibly flavourful, tender meat and rich, gelatinous cooking liquid perfect for hearty comfort foods.
