What Are Ham Hocks?

Ham hocks, also known as ham shanks, are cut from the lower portion of the pig’s leg. Hocks consist of bone surrounded by collagen, connective tissue and meat. The typical preparation process entails curing and smoking to add a rich, bacon-like flavor.

Our Traditional Ham Hock Preparation Method

S. Clyde Weaver has been using essentially the same process for our ham hocks and shanks for over a century. Our tried-and-true technique includes:

• Hand-processed cured hams without added water.
• A pure, all-natural hardwood smoking process that develops incredible flavor.
• Sourcing from shankless bone-in ham with skin removed during trimming.
• A meticulous curing process that results in superior texture and taste.

Because the ham hock is skinless, it provides the ideal texture for slow cooking.

Perfect Ways to Use Ham Hocks in Your Cooking

The versatility of our smoked ham shanks provides abundant options for adding flavor to your favorite dishes or experimenting with new and exciting recipes:

• Combine them with green beans and potatoes for a traditional Pennsylvania Dutch favorite.
• Add depth to hearty bean soups and stews — the collagen in the hocks breaks down to create a rich, silky texture.
• Enhance the flavor of braised greens like collards, kale and mustard greens.
• Infuse broths and stocks with a rich, smoky flavor.
• Create Southern-style dishes with black-eyed peas and other legumes.

Why Our Ham Hocks Stand Out

When you select S. Clyde Weaver for your ham hocks, you will experience the unmatched Lancaster County tradition and heritage that we’ve adhered to since our founding in 1920. Our family recipes, handed down through multiple generations, deliver superior flavor compared to mass-produced alternatives. You also appreciate the versatility in the kitchen that our ham shanks provide.
