What You Need
1 Three Aussie Farmers Wood Smoked Bacon Hock/ leftover ham bone
1 brown onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic,
1 carrot, sliced
1 leek, sliced
1 stalk celery, sliced
1 sprig fresh thyme
3 stalks fresh parsley
1 Tbsp. salt
½ tsp. whole black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
2.5L water
How To Make It
Place all ingredients into a large saucepan, cover with water, then bring to the boil and simmer for 3hrs covered.
Approx. 1hr into simmering, take a knife and cut slits into the hock or ham bone, releasing the meat flavours.
When the stock is ready, remove hock/ham bone from the saucepan, remove the rind and shred any leftover meat.
Allow the liquid to cool, strain and then place stock into a container ready for use.
Our Bacon Hocks are great for adding a delicious wood smoked flavour to soups, stews and casseroles. Simple, hearty and perfect for those cold winter months.
