Ever made trotter stock? :-)
No, sadly! Trotters are getting hard to find here, as are ham hocks. I need to find some hocks soon, it's getting up to pea soup weather.

Mmmm... Hock stock comes out nearly as thick as trotter stock! I just used some of that to make rice over the weekend...
Have you tried any oriental markets? Mine sells whole pig legs and I have them cut them at the joint so I get one hock and one trotter per leg. I took pics last time I was there, just have not shrunk them yet for posting.
I live in a wee tiny city in New Zealand. I think we have two oriental "supermarkets", and neither of them sells fresh meat. I really should go and have a chat to my neighbourhood butcher (I feel fortunate in that I still have one!)

I adore stock made from feets.

Smoked hocks and their stock are an absolutely requirement for me when I make a bot of beans or greens. I can't imagine them without it.

I've not purchased smoked hocks, but I'll use fresh hocks, then add bacon. :-) -- Peace, Om.
