I have got several raw pork hocks that I want to smoke, (yes, they were cheap, so I bought several. Does anybody have any advice on how to best smoke these? Do I inject, (and if so, what?). Do I just keep putting on the smoke and heat for a long time?? Should I use a rub??

Been trying to get a hold of those for quite a while, but they are becoming the next popular thing so they are hard to come by or expensive around here. By expensive I mean they are like $5 a pound and as you know it is not all meat. That said, I haven't been able to get any to cook myself, but have eaten them at a local joint and they are really good. It may help your search to know that they are referred to now as pig wings or pork wings.
I like Malcom Reed so here is a link to him making them, which is probably what I would follow if I had some.

Thanks, that was what I was looking for, I'll try dry brining them. I am happy to see so many Australian butchers not knowing what to do with them, so they go cheap at some supermarkets here. And I love the Australian/Asian butchers low prices on ribs in some areas. I'll post up pics once I do hocks. Thanks again!
