Schweinshaxe (German pronunciation: [ˈʃvaɪnshaksə] ⓘ; literally "swine's hock"), in German cuisine, is a roasted ham hock (or pork knuckle). [1] The ham hock is the end of the pig's leg, just above the ankle and below the meaty ham portion.
In southern parts of Germany, the common preparation is known as Schweinshaxe, and it is usually roasted. The Polish dish golonka, '(little shin)' or golonko and the Swedish dish fläsklägg med rotmos are very similar, alternatively grilled on a barbecue; other similar dishes include the Swiss Wädli and the Austrian Stelze.
