It's been a while since I posted anything but while doing something different that turns out it's always nice to share info. I used Pops Brine on fresh hocks for an 8 day soak, then an overnight dry in the fridge and then about 4 hours of hickory smoke in the Smoking It #3 at 250. IT hit about 146, a little higher than I would have liked but at least I know they are done as I usually share some away. I had three ham bones from my kitchen shift on Easter Sunday so they went in as well for some additional smoking. I see soupy beans & ham coming up in a few peoples diets. Thanks for looking.....Willie

Thanks....those were from a restaurant supply...possibly the reason for the meatier hock....most markets around here don't carry raw hocks usually

Thanks buddy...nice to be missed. I've been smoking & using that pellet pusher a lot more now and the sausage making has kicked up a notch again with goodies from Waltons to play with. I had to wean off a little here....hours flew by while I was keyboarding, ya know. Hope all is well with you & the family...Willie
 
Those are going to be so tasty.

Thanks Bear....I could have pulled them a bit sooner, giving them just a 'kiss' of smoke as Foam calls it on his hocks. But, very deep color and smoky goodness so I ain't complaining about the outcome. Yeah, it's been a while.....Sincerely hopes you & the missus are feeling tip top....Regards to Mrs. Bear
