WHERE IT GOES
What makes it different
Shank, not hock
A hock is the joint. A shank is the whole lower leg above it, so there is considerably more meat on it — enough that it is part of the meal rather than only a seasoning for it.
What the smoke does
It is smoked before it reaches you, so it seasons everything it cooks with. One shank carries a whole pot of beans, a pan of greens or a split pea soup with nothing else added.
Salt the pot late
Because the shank brings its own salt. Taste before you reach for any — very often it does not need a grain.
Put it in at the beginning, not the end. The flavor needs hours to get everywhere, and the meat needs the same time to soften.
FROM THE FARM
We raise our hogs on pasture here in Monticello, Kentucky, and have every animal cut at a USDA-inspected plant down the road. We raise them, we have them cut, and we pack what comes back ourselves.
How to use it
1
Straight into the pot with the beans, the greens or the peas. No browning needed — the smoke is already there.
2
Cover with water or stock, bring it up, then hold it at the barest simmer.
3
Three hours at least. It is done when the meat falls off the bone and the liquid has gone cloudy and rich.
4
Pull the meat back into the pot, throw the bone out, and taste before you salt anything.
What you’re getting
One smoked pork shank.
An unsmoked version is sold separately.
Raised on our farm in Monticello, Kentucky, and cut at a USDA-inspected plant.
Weights are averages. Every package is cut by hand, so no two are exactly alike.
