Throw a smoked ham hock in your slow cooker, or dutch oven, and it will be the easiest, most delicious meal you make all week. At Late Bloomer Ranch, we eat hocks more than any other cut in the fall and winter for the savory richness they add to whatever is cooked with them. The smoked hocks have the same cure as our bacon, and will not disappoint! Late Bloomer Ranch produces premium quality pork, raised on organic pasture and local, glyphosate-free feed. Our pigs are outdoors, year-round, exhibiting all of their “pigness” and reveling in it. Experience the difference of eating meat bred for flavor and nutrition, with the added benefits of being pasture-raised, and corn-and-soy-free! Compared to conventional pork, pastured pork has 2.4x Omega 3 fatty acids, 60% lower Omega 6 fatty acids, 8% higher protein, and twice the vitamin E. Late Bloomer Ranch pork tastes, and feels, different— try it for yourself.
