Bramblebee Ham Hock nitrate free

£5.75
3 in stock

These are now in our nitrate free range of products

A ham hock (or pork knuckle) is the joint from the pig's lower leg, where the foot meets the leg, prized for its rich flavour from bone, fat, and connective tissue, making it ideal for slow cooking in soups, stews (like split pea), and braises for tender, flavourful meat and gelatinous stock. It's an economical cut, available smoked or unsmoked, and adds a deep, savoury pork essence to dishes, often cooked until the meat falls off the bone.

Well worth the effort

Well what I was expecting was a small, neat hock and what arrived was huge, nearly 2kg of skin and fat and bone and meat - not the usual chemical pink either, much darker. Big laughs. What are you going to do with that then Mum? Hmmm…. So more thought and a lot of time. Several hours of simmering later I had delicious meat separated from the bone and fat and even more hours later after cooling and removing the fat, the most amazing gelatinous stock, lots of it. So I’ve got everything to make my soups with in the freezer and felt like a proper cook. Complete opposite of ultra processed food.
