- Cheap, easy, quick and super tasty! In this video i'm going to show you a smoked pulled pork hocks recipe!
Pork butts, pork scotch and pork shoulders in general are getting quite expensive, however pork hocks are still super cheap!
I remember when butchers used to give pork hocks away, now they are around $5-$10 per kg. Which is around half the price per kg you'll be paying compared to other suitable pulled pork cuts.
The downside to using pork hocks is obviously you're paying for bone and they'll most likely have the skin on too. However with the right preparation, pork hocks produce some great pulled pork and they are a quick cook compared to using other cuts for pulled pork too!
In this video i'll be covering off the below:

And much more!
If you don't have a pellet smoker but you have a Weber kettle and want to follow along, you can use the snake method! It's a great method that uses charcoal briquettes where you can set your Weber kettle up for a long smoke without needing any accessories, here's a video i've done on the snake method: • How to Set Up the Snak...
For these pork hocks, I trimmed them, seasoned them, got my pellet smoker running at around 275F/135c using Pecan pellets and then put my pork hocks in.
I let them go for around 2.5 hours until they had developed a nice colour and the rub had set on the meat nicely, the internal temperature at this stage was around 185F/85c.
They then went into a foil tray with around 500ml of chicken stock, 1/4 cup of brown sugar and around 6tbs of butter, I then covered the tray in foil and they went back into the pellet smoker.
An hour later they were probing very tender at an internal temperature of around 210F/99c, then I took them out, let them steam off to stop the cooking process, let them rest and then pulled them apart.
These pork hocks made for some delicious pulled pork!
I then used the smoked pulled pork to make some pulled pork sandwiches!
So if you're looking to make some cheap, quick, easy and tasty pulled pork, definitely use some pork hocks!

Great, thanks for the tip! I know this cut quite well from our German neighbours but it never came mind this could be used for pulled pork
No worries mate 🤘
Ohhhh absolutely fantastic 👍 Will try that next time! I have eaten hocks so often, but not in a pulled pork way! Thanks Aaron 👍 , greetings Bernd
Cheers Bernd!
that's so cool, i like the idea of a cook under 4 hours!
So handy 🤘
Never seen a Brabantia product outside of the Netherlands, cool to see.
Looked very tasty 👌👌
Loving the air fryer 🙏
You've done it mate!
Cheers mate!
thanks for the vid mate! might try this on the webber on sunday!! maybe accompanied by a spiced smoked pineapple!!
Definitely do! Oh very nice 👍
G'day Aaron, you've inspired me to do from the Oklahoma Joe recipes ; using my Weber snake method with cherry wood "Philly cheese steak" tomorrow as i have my brother staying with me for a couple days. Do you have any recommendations for Lamb loin chops as i have 3 packets from Woolies i'll chuck on the weber after Philly cheese steak as an entree. Should i just increase the temp as a normal weber cook, or keep the low temp and do something similar with the loin chops ? Thank you for your YT channel, its pretty decent
Excellent Aaron
🙏
Looks magnificent. Will give this a go if it ever stops RAINING! Arrggghh. cheers.
You must be in Sydney?😅
@@LownSlowBasics Yep lol. You should know, you sent me knife i won. cheers.
@@victorbitter583 ah that’s right! Was a while back now 🤘
Another great video mate. 🤙🇦🇺
Cheers mate 🤘
Work with pork knuckles too?
Same thing I believe 🤘
First! Great video. Did you check out that red gum smoked salt yet? 👍
I've got some from Gewirahaus (sp). It's magnificent. I mainly use it for seasoning meats to cook on the gasser. The beauty of it is it mix it with plain salt to be as smoky or just a hint as you like. And not that fake smoke flavour either. Would recommend to anyone! cheers.
Not yet mate! I need to ASAP🤘
What under gloves do you use and also the temp probe? Cheers
Just the gardening gloves from Bunnings. Cyclone brand I believe. Temp probe is the IHT 1P inkbird.
@@LownSlowBasics I did this recipe today and absolutely loved it
@@kevinhoey78 good to hear mate! Good work.
What model grill did you use
The Oklahoma joes rider DLX pellet smoker. What country are you in?
@@LownSlowBasics USA 🇺🇸 thanks
DANG, that looks good!!!
Was so tasty!
Excellent for when someone doesn't want to splash out on a pork butt . I'm going to see what a supermarket pork shoulder is like when pulled , only cost £10
Nice mate!
Yummy
Definitely was🤘
I’m so with you, that shank is better and more tasty than pork shoulder
Definitely is!
My biggest problem with pulled pork is the amount of meat for two people. If I could find these this would be better.
I cryovac and freeze left overs in meal size portions.. a 4kg pork butt will make 5-7 meals
@@jessf6649 This is the way.
Definitely more suitable for a couple of people 🤘
Shhhhh Arron! Don’t tell everyone :(
Secrets out 😆
After you airfry your pork rind deep fry it and they'll double in size and be lighter
I’ll try that! Might put a tray on top during the air fry to stop curling too.
Best way is to remove as much fat off it, then simmer in salty water for a couple of minutes , then airfry and finally deep fry. But in small pieces because they do expand, long process I know.... but the end result 😋
only about $7.99/kg for a pork shoulder in Melbourne
Good price!
I can see butchers suddenly putting up their hock prices
They better not 😆
Just seen these at £1.99 each, and weigh up to a kilo.. Sold!
Enjoy 🤘
Be very careful when pronouncing pork hocks 🤣
😂
I know right. Haha I thought this video was going to get reported 😂
@@LownSlowBasics 🤣
I saw this comment before the video got going and that's all I could hear for the rest of the clip 😂
