Hey Scott, great video (as always). Some years back I bought a whole lamb because of your butchering tutorial. lol it took me 3 hours to butcher but I had such fun. Today you have really taught me something again. I love Schweinshaxe (I am German) and even though we have already had our supper. Thank you and greetings from Johannesburg South Africa

It is pronounced Schweins Haxe but a bavarian just calles it a 'hax'n' Haxn being leg. Thank you so much for this Scott, it brings back memories and now I know how it's done, you are a star!
@aelthric2 жыл бұрын
It is pronounced like it is two words "Schweins - Haxe" literally meaning "Pork Knuckle" in English... Excellent with sauerkraut and a litre stein of beer to wash it down Wunderbar!!!! In Italy this is also called Stinco di Maiale but they tend to remove the fatty skin covering it, so no crackling with Stinco Di Maiale... Buonissimo... 👍😉👍

Is it brined/gepökelt in Germany? From the colour and Scott's description it looks like a ham, rather than a pork Haxe. I'm pretty sure any version I've ever had was pork and not ham/Schinken

Hey Scott, my late dad was a butcher all of his career and he always brought home a special cut for Christmas. It was a boiling bacon joint that we ate cold with pickles and salad for our Christmas tea. It contained a lot of amazing white fat along with the meat which made it very special. Try as I can, I cannot find anything like it. If I get boiling bacon it has virtually no fat in it at all. Am I asking for the wrong thing? If I go to a proper butchers, what should I ask for???????? Cheers mate.

@jermainerace41562 жыл бұрын
There is something else to consider: pigs went through a "leaning" trend from the 1970s up until the recent re-interest in local food, of course this was especially the large producers. I suspect that it's not nearly as bad in Britain as it is here in the states. Here another trend is that the American taste tends to favor bacon, ham, loin chops, ribs, and so on, mostly hind cuts and processed/smoked meats; the forequarters are almost an afterthought and are bred down quite a lot for efficiency's sake. When I buy a shoulder it's not nearly as marbled as what I see Scott working with.
@dandare10012 жыл бұрын
Unbrined tastes much better. They used to give you the option in some places in Germany, but because they make more profit with a brined ham that can last longer, they don't seem to sell them anymore.

So delicious! Since I'm originally from that part of the world, I would like to, if I may, correct your excellent prounciation. It is not Schwein Schaxe, no, it is Schwein's Haxe - Pig's Hock, not Pig Shock as you were saying. Notheless in Austria it is usaually referrred to as Schweine Braten or Pig Roast or again, Schwein's Braten. If your ever in Vienna go to the Prater and stop in at the Schweitzerhaus and have a Schwein's Braten that has been roasted on a rotiserie for hours. They get the crispy done! Also, have a Budweißer from the Cech Republic where "Budweiser" originated. I believe they sold the name... ❤🐾

I fell in love with Schweinshaxe on a trip to Bavaria nearly 20 years ago. We visited a monastery famous for its brewery (I think it was Andechs), and they were serving Schweinshaxe with sauerkraut and potatoes in a medieval-looking tavern-type room on the monastery grounds. It was a melt-in-your-mouth experience never to be forgotten. Only I believe the monastery's version was roasted fresh and not brined.

I have these in my freezer right now that I use for my "beans, and soups". Im trying this tomorrow. I have to admit. I am a fat loving kind of person so mostly I love my fat soft, but I will give this a try. The idea of putting the meat on a nice roll or biscuit sounds so good, and simple flavors are the best! and of course saving that wonderful stock from the first cook for your soups and gravy's for latter. Nothing goes to waste.
