Don't throw them all into burger! I cut mine with saw about 2" thick and smoked for 2-3 hours. This will not cook them, but smoke them. From there you can stick in freezer for future use. When I cooked mine I braised them until fork tender and had them with chick peas and garlic I previously canned. Wow! It's no wonder I'm gaining weight 😩. You can absolutely brine them before smoking to make "ham" hocks, but I just wanted smoked hocks. Enjoy!

Just like shanks. Once I tried roasting them a few years ago they are now my favorite part of the deer to eat. I also turned a few friends into trying them and they agree as well.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

It takes awhile to cook them but once the membrane melts,you're in for a real tasty treat.I like to cook them on a cool winter day.They make some really great tacos too.I like them on a corn tortilla with onion,cilantro and jalapeno.Reminds me of barbacoa.

As Bob Hagel would say"You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong."Good words of wisdom...............
