Cured and Smoked Ham Hocks?

[BrianGSDTexoma]

Cured in pop's low salt brine for a week. Smoked at 225 with tube until 165. In the past I have done them to 145 but they did not get tender like the store bought in a pot of beans so decided to try 165 this time. Friend gave me some Colorado Pinto Beans. Some of these should make a good pot of beans.

WOW those look great! I usually buy them smoked. Nice inspiration.

Looks really good Brian. Hoping for the final shot with beans.

Look great. Happy you can get raw pork hocks. I don't find them.
Have you considered smoking to 140° and dropping in SV at 140° for 24 hours?

Looks good Brian. I wish I could find fresh hocks, never see them around here...

Looks great Brian and those beans should be great. Our local Savealot carries fresh hocks
