Smoked Ham Hocks (3.0 lb)

Description: Ham hocks are flavorful and versatile cuts of meat that come from the lower portion of a pig's leg, just above the foot. With their rich, smoky taste and tender texture, ham hocks are beloved in many culinary traditions around the world. These meaty treasures are often used as a base for creating hearty soups, stews, and beans, lending a robust depth of flavor to the dishes. Slow cooking or braising is the preferred method for ham hocks, allowing the meat to become tender and succulent while infusing surrounding ingredients with its savory essence. Whether added to collard greens, split pea soup, or German sauerkraut, ham hocks are a delectable addition to any recipe.

Cooking Suggestions: For a delicious split pea soup, start by sautéing onions, carrots, and celery. Add split peas, ham hock, and vegetable broth, then simmer until the peas are tender. Remove the ham hock, shred the meat, and return it to the soup. Season with herbs, salt, and pepper. Serve hot and enjoy!
