how do you cook neckbones and hamhocks?

Answer 1

Either one can be used to season beans. Either great northern or pinto beans simmered all day with either a ham hock or neckbones makes a deliciously flavored meal.Especially good served with fresh baked corn bread.

Answer 2

I love them cooked slow with a gravy if you are not talking about the smoked hamhocks or neckbones those are used for seasons in greens and beans. The fresh once if you wash them and put them in a soup pot with bellpeppers and onions.... garlic and an other vegetable that you my like, add enough water to just covet them and let them cook slowly until they become tender and don't forget to add your seasons about 30 min. after you have put them on the fire. Once they are completely cooked it time to make the Garvy. This is made with flour and hot water.... mix 1/2 and 1/2 in a cup and them add it to your meat. cont. to do this until you reach your desired thickness. Happy eating "Soul Food Kitchen"

Answer 3

Ham hocks and neck bones can be used for cooking soups and stews. Ham hocks give black-eyed peas and mustard greens a delicious flavoring, both are traditionally southern dishes served on New Years day to bring luck and wealth. If you are serving turkey for your Christmas or Hanukkah meal you can save the bone then cook it down to make a broth that you can freeze for a later time. The same goes for a ham with a bone in it. There are plenty of cooking sites you can do a search in. I use www.foodtv.com or www.cooks.com

Answer 4

I really haven't met an ethnic food as yet that I particularly 'hate', except possibly what might be referred to as our North American "fast foods" -- yuck!! Within my range of experiences, which include: Asian -- Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamise, Korean, etc.), Mexican (not 'Tex-Mex'), Italian, French (including French-Canadian fare), Greek, West Indian (Jamaican, Trinidadian), and the like, I can say I certainly enjoy some foods more than some others. But I would really enjoy trying more kinds!!

Answer 5

long & slow cooking can make delicious soups & stock,flavour can be enhanced by adding vegetables of any type,leafy or root vegetables add to the taste,.meat can be flaked off the bone & mixed back into the soup,stock ofcourse is a handy stand-by for other dishes,neck bones can also be added to stews.
