Fresh Pork Hock

Cut from the lower half of the leg, just above the trotter. Low temperature and longer cook time in the oven, crock-pot, or smoker yields succulent, fall-off-the-bone meat. Or confit it for the best thing you've ever had, then maybe you shred the meat and pack it in a jar to make rillettes and bring it to the beach for the best picnic you've ever had, just add baguette.
