Ham Hocks

[bill ace 350]

Picked up some smoked but uncooked Ham Hocks at the commissary.

Any recipe for these?

Thanks.

I love using them to make Portuguese Bean Soup!

Soup or pig wings

Big pot of ham hocks and Lima beans comes to mind

I can tell you 4 hamhocks in a crockpot of beans it too many

yep, I did that once - salt overload....

One hamhock per pot works best for me :)

use 1 for collard greens? Then 1 for beans and 1 for soup? the other....well I am sure you will get some ideas from the "good ole boys" on here.

Some beans, chopped onion, carrots and celery come to mind. Got me craving some ham and beans now

I just did some great northern beans in the instant pot .
I also do 1 hock with small red potatoes and green beans .

I often do a second smoke on them, just to wake up the flavor before adding to a pot of beans. Sometimes I'll do a pressure finish on them and shred the meat, then vacuum seal in smaller portions for use in a variety of soups, potato soup in particular is really good.

I use them in white bean soup. I think those look like shanks. I could be wrong but when I see hocks at the Kroger, they looks like sliced marrow bones, without marrow or meat.

Well, just ham hocks and some doctored Bush's baked beans.

Pretty tasty.
