Frozen Pork Hocks - 1KG
Description:
Frozen Pork Hocks are a versatile and flavorful cut of meat, typically sourced from the lower portion of the pig's leg, just above the hoof. Known for their rich, tender meat and generous amount of connective tissue, these hocks are perfect for slow-cooking, braising, or smoking. The pork hock is an excellent choice for creating hearty stews, soups, and braised dishes, where the long cooking time allows the flavors to develop and the meat to become tender and succulent.

Instructions:

- Place the hocks on the smoker grates and smoke for 4-6 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 190°F (88°C). This low and slow method allows the collagen to break down, making the hocks tender and flavorful.
