"Pig Wings!" They are bone in Pork Shanks. I've made them a few times. I get them from a buddy who works for a restaurant food supplier. Great for parties

Farmland (Smithfield) has them. My butcher just ordered me some. 4oz a piece, come in 3lb packs, 3 packs in a case. Have to order at least one case. So... 9lbs is going to cost me about $68.00. I’m trying these this weekend for game day food. I see this thread is pretty old. Have you found any of these lately? Do you have a recipe perfected yet??

Looks like Smithfield retailers can get em.

Blackshirt BBQ fibula and tibia would be the shin part of the rear leg. Ulna and radius would be forearm.

Well, I only know what I’ve been told. So I guess I was told wrong. The butcher said "Fibula", so I’ll go with that.

Blackshirt BBQ one is a fore shank and one a hind shank. Easy to get mixed up. No worries, potato; tater. Bet they are good whatever you call them!

Originally posted by John View PostSeems these are getting popular, a local place several friends go to said they tried them and were some of the best things they have had. All I know about them is that they are pork shanks.
Anyone doing these? Seems like a butcher only item.

I've never cooked them but a local bar has them and they are dynamite. I think they fry theirs but they still were good. They also have a "Pig Wing Challenge" that I think someone from the food channel tried. I would love to try and smoke some but they are very hard to find.

My client in the Foodservice business used to have all of the marketing pictures about "when pigs fly" that went along with the marketing campaign for this introduction of a "new" product.
Since Farmland/Smithfield pulled their marketing efforts away from the regional brokers and went to a corporate only campaign, I haven't seen the marketing or the pig wings.
They were quite tasty, although, as has already been reported, they are pork shanks (the end joint of the front leg of the pig). This was new marketing for an old product.
Best regards,
Jim
