In beans, stocks, and soups they are wonderful. Idk about just eating a ham-hock by itself. It's kinda fatty, even though some meat is on it and usually used for the above mentioned.

You need to make a pot of pinto beans and them hocks in. Best poor man's meal ever.

boil one in a pot of water with some garlic and when it starts to pull apart add in some green beans and cook till they are tender. Or throw it in a pot of Great Northern Beans with some garlic. It's also good in greens of all kinds.

Because most amerilards think it's nog and whitetrash food so they consider it beneath them. Don't enlighten them or the hipsters will get ahold of it and the price will quadruple.
